Ted Cunningham 469 Posted March 3 That new WS logo has a kind of Web 2.0/early iPhone feel to it. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's actually playing up the "World" in World Series and I think it's pretty clever. As for worst WS logo? I'd say 2016 takes the cake. Bland, boring, nothing special about it. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The overuse of basic, free fonts with excessively used gradients and shadows to go along with white lettering that has no outline so that where the parts that go outside the ball are barely visible due only to the aformentioned shadowing. It looks like a quick concept someone made in photoshop as merely an idea to refine, but got lazy and just submitted this at the deadline. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say 2016 takes the cake. Bland, boring, nothing special about it. I disagree with this. I fall more in line with what @MNtwins3 suggested in terms of modernizing the '80s-early '90s WS logo. But I think the example you offer here is pretty interesting. I hadn't given it much thought before now, but I actually really like the effect of including just one seam of the baseball into the logo. It's gives you the sense of the shape of the ball without forcing the logo into that shape. That said, this logo fails to convey the grandeur of the World Series. But it's far from the worse example. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew_Gamer_NZP 420 Posted March 4 Per the ESPN article: "The plans, announced by MLB on Thursday morning, include an annual tribute in which uniformed personnel will wear a jersey patch celebrating Gehrig, and a "4-ALS" logo -- commemorating his No. 4 -- will be displayed around stadiums. The league will use the occasion to raise money and awareness to battle ALS and pay homage to ALS advocacy groups like the LG4Day committee, which turned an off-the-cuff text into a cause that will bring together the sport." 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If there was a "man" (Atlas, the Titan god) with the globe on his back or held up in his arms...sure. But just a globe with baseball stitches doesn't strike me as a strong connection. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't know if it would actually work, but it sounds cool 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBTV 21,431 Posted March 4 Baseballs should never be blue. If they're going to use the ball then it should look at least a little like the ball. Messes with my mind when I'm looing at a globe, but then I realize it's a ball, but balls shouldn't be blue (grow up), so what the hell am I looking at anyway? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marlins93 1,124 Posted March 5 The shadow details of those logos doesn't seem very scalable. I can't imagine that WS logo looking nice as a patch, especially. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Krabs 90 Posted March 5 Since the 2019 World Series logo was revealed, I always wished that would be the permanent World Series logo. It and the other logos in the package were AWESOME. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
