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.

Mascot: Embestitán

(embestir “charge, ram” + titán)

Embestitán is a gray rhino, with white hooves and horns and red eyes, wearing red armor that includes a half-helm and white striping around the neck and chest. I would ride him into battle.
