There have been so many different incarnations of Washington baseball teams over the years that it’s hard to keep track of them. This logo is of the American League Washington Nationals, who existed from 1901 to 1958, not to be confused with the current National League Nationals or the version of the AL Senators that was born after the original Senators were moved to Minnesota. Actually the team was known as the both the Nationals and Senators for many years (the fans never warmed up to the Nationals name), with the name affectionately abbreviated to the “Nats”. The owner finally gave in and officially renamed the team the Senators in 1956. A very confusing story for a team that always seemed to be a very confused organization.
