The logo of the Liga Nacional Puertorriqueña: a big sky-blue circle, bordered in red and white, surrounding a smaller circle of darker blue with white borders, superimposed on which is a red-and-white nautical star that hosts the acronym "LNP" in black block letters.

150 years of the best baseball in the universe—all in one place.

The logo of the Fieles de Lares: a white "L" in Old English type, bordered in black, is accompanied by a single white star with the same treatment, symbolizing the town of Lares. Behind them, on a blue circle, stand 77 stars that are barely opaque against the blue; they're surrounded by a white circle, which itself is surrounded by a dark red one.

The War for the Republic officially began with a major uprising in Lares against the Spanish colonial government, which earned the town undying gratitude from some, undying hatred from others, and, perhaps, most importantly, an excellent name for their baseball team.
