Auburn Doubledays, established in 1958, is a baseball team, which has been a member of the New York — Penn League since the very first day until the league’s closure in 2020. In 2021 the Doubledays moved to the Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League, and in their first season in the PGCBL, the club finished the 2nd. Since 1996, the logo of the Auburn Doubledays has gone through only one subtle update, which aligned it with the parent team’s brand identity.
Meaning and history
The Auburn Doubledays adopted their current name upon moving to a new ballpark in 1996, while the history of the team in the New York–Penn League actually started in 1958.
1996 – now
The old Auburn Doubledays logo looked almost the same as the current one, except for the color scheme, which comprised an aqua or a teal and yellow. It featured the name of the team with a baseball player on the top.
As the team became a Washington Nationals affiliate in 2011, it adopted a different color scheme, where navy blue was complemented by scarlet.
Alternative emblem
Although the main emblem has stayed the same apart from the colors since the 1990s, the franchise developed an additional logo in 2007. It features a large A “wearing” a Civil War cap and a mustache.
Colors
The current color scheme was inspired by that of the parent team’s logo.
