The Mariners used navy and yellow as their primary colors from their inception in 1977 up until a rebrand in 1993. But coupled with the Dodgers stylistic choices throughout their history, it works. To the eye, this logo has a ton of white space. The Dodgers have had pretty much the same logos ever since they moved to Los Angeles in time for the 1958 season, but it wasn’t until 2012 that this logo was designated as the alternate logo in favor of the iconic ‘LA’ used on their caps. A few points deducted for creativity, but bonus points for rounding out the regal feel. The Royals alternate is just a combination of their main logo and their script, the modern versions of which have both been around since 2002, but it works in a good way. It’s just a different version of the normal logo. It’s decent, but doesn’t add any extra flair on top of the normal logo. Houston’s alternate logo is basically the crest if you just lopped off the outside circle with text. The Astros decided to, strangely, cut off all associations with space-related illustrations back in 2013 in favor of more Western themes. The black jerseys worked, the black alternate logo did not. It’s a step up from their old alternate, which is the same as their main logo only black. The Mets’ alternate logo is their word font, and was first officially used in 2014. Regardless, it’s not entirely mesmerizing. I mean, there’s not much else you can do because technically it’s correct. It’s a white sock on a black baseball diamond.
#Baseball logos Patch#
You’ve probably seen this logo used off and on as a patch on Chicago’s alternate black jerseys since 1990. The Frisco RoughRiders made Teddy Roosevelt into a cool icon, why shouldn’t the Nationals? Plus, there’s so much more you could do with an alternate logo – bald eagles, the Capitol building, heck, maybe even one of the Presidents that they run races with.
Washington’s alternate is their DC patch, which is kind of cool in terms of a jersey patch, but consider the fact that they had this logo earlier in their history with more 3D effects and shadowing, and this one looks bland by comparison. Bonus points for implementing the Pirates’ font, but the big white circle enveloping the majority of the crest is devoid of anything great… kind of like Pittsburgh’s current roster. Unfortunately, Pittsburgh’s alternate logo is this uninspired crest from 2010. Steel City, with the Clemente Bridge backdropped beautifully on the Allegheny River directly behind PNC park? The Pirates would be another good candidate for a bridge logo.
There’s too much orange and the wordmark blends terribly with the bridge. Props to the Giants for trying to exhibit the Golden Gate Bridge, which would be cool done right, but this logo is just too busy to work well. San Francisco first introduced this logo back in 2015. Detroit would do well to bring this logo back, or at the very least, come up with something striking and new.Īnother logo that I’m not sure I’ve ever seen before. As far as logos with an actual Tiger, you have this alternate that has remained on a shelf for a few years, or the zonked out Tiger from the 1920s. I’m all for keeping things simple in the name of tradition, but I don’t think many people would list Detroit in their ‘top 5’ of storied franchises. Since then, not much in the front of eye-catching style. Like Philly, Detroit technically hasn’t had an alternate logo since 2013, at which point they had this clever logo with a tiger crawling through the Olde English D.
The swooping baseball gives major 90s vibes and probably belongs in a bygone era. First introduced in 1998, it looks like was created a little too late. This Phillies logo was last officially used in 2018, but I can’t say I’ve ever seen it before. Do better, Cleveland.Ĭurrently, the Phillies don’t have an official alternate logo. Not exactly the thorough social change that was similarly exhibited by the Washington Football Team. Cleveland is on record saying they’ll rename/rebrand their team as early as 2022, but would continue to use the Indians name and brand through 2021.Īlthough Chief Wahoo has not graced Cleveland uniforms since 2019, the team still sells merchandise with the logo and still officially lists it as their alternate logo.
