While the logo of the Minor League Baseball team the Winston-Salem Dash is mostly a wordmark, it also manages to reflect the baseball theme and convey the concept of speed.
Meaning and history
The oldest continuously operating franchise in the Carolina League, the Winston-Salem Dash became part of the League in 1945.
1995 – 2008
As the team was called the Winston-Salem Warthogs before 2008, it used a different logo. Here, a grey warthog was shown behind a large red “W.”
2009 – 2019
Following the adoption of the current name, a new Winston-Salem Dash logo was introduced. The name of the franchise in purple was followed by a baseball. The overall design created the impression of a plane or a bird moving at a very high speed.
