This simple logo of an early major league baseball team, the 1901 Baltimore Orioles, is a very significant and important historical logo in the history of the sport. The Orioles only played 2 seasons in Baltimore before being moved to New York, where they became the Highlanders, and ultimately, the Yankees, the sport’s most successful franchise. Baltimore returned to baseball again after the 1954 season when the St. Louis Browns moved there, and the new team adopted both the Orioles name and the black and orange color scheme of their old ancestors.
