Meaning and history
Although the Lexington Legends logo has gone through an update in 2012, the main hero remained the same – it’s the team’s mascot, a mustachioed baseball player nicknamed “Big L.”
2001 — 2012
The earliest Lexington Legends logo featured the word “Legends” in a serif type in blue with Big L depicted above the letters “N” and “D.”
2013 — Today
The version adopted in 2013 replaces the serif font with a green script, moves Big L to the left, and makes him bigger in comparison with the lettering.
Colors
On the 2013 emblem, the color scheme has been simplified. It now comprises blue, green, and white.
