The logo of the Minor League Baseball team the Kingsport Mets does have a couple of visual links to the emblem of its parent team, yet it manages to preserve its distinctive identity.
The Kingsport Mets have a long and illustrious history that started in 1921. The team has gone through around ten names before becoming an affiliate of the New York Mets and adopting the current name in 1980. The team belongs to the Appalachian League.
The Kingsport Mets logo is based on the wordmark. Here, the lettering “Mets” is given in the same script as on the logo of the New York Mets. There’s a rhombus on the background.
A large orange and white “K” in a decorative font can be seen over the dark blue background.
