Label not working in proc print

Q1983 — Wed, 13 Dec 2017 15:10:15 GMT

data baseball(keep= name team);

set sashelp.baseball;

if team = 'Cleveland';

run;

Sample output
Allanson, Andy Cleveland
Thornton, Andre Cleveland
Butler, Brett Cleveland
Jacoby, Brook Cleveland
Bando, Chris Cleveland
Castillo, Carmen Cleveland
Snyder, Cory Cleveland
Carter, Joe Cleveland
Franco, Julio Cleveland
Hall, Mel Cleveland
Tabler, Pat Cleveland
Bernazard, Tony Cleveland

PROC PRINT DATA = baseball noobs ;

var name team;

label team = 'My Team';

RUN;

The output is not changing the team name to 'My Team'. I researched this and I believe I am using correct syntax???

Name	Team
Allanson, Andy	Cleveland
Thornton, Andre	Cleveland
Butler, Brett	Cleveland
Jacoby, Brook	Cleveland
Bando, Chris	Cleveland
Castillo, Carmen	Cleveland
Snyder, Cory	Cleveland
Carter, Joe	Cleveland
Franco, Julio	Cleveland
Hall, Mel	Cleveland
Tabler, Pat	Cleveland
Bernazard, Tony	Cleveland

Add the label option in the proc print (and avoid coding in mixed/upper case):

proc print data=baseball noobs label;
  var name team;
  label team = 'My Team';
run;

You have to add the LABELS option to PROC PRINT so it knows to use labels.
