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.

Gaceta de la Liga Nacional Puertorriqueña

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

The logo of the Cachorros de Arecibo, which is based off their parent team's, the Lobos de Arecibo. It's a red circle bordered in silver-black-silver; inside the red circle, on top of the subtle shadow of a wolf head, is a very triangular sharp "A" in silver, which tails to a dark gray at the bottom of the letter, shadowed vertically in black towards its bottom.

Arecibo Cubs

Unlike the teams with more established histories that dot the landscape of North America, Europe, and Japan, the vast majority of Principiantes teams attempt an explicit nominal link with their major-league affiliates. Natural, then, that the team hosting Arecibo’s future stars is named for future wolves.

The home uniforms of the Cachorros de Arecibo honor the institution of the baseball uniform, with its simple color coding and the outsized impact of accentuation. In practice, what this means: white jerseys with red "Arecibo" wordmark and swash on the front and numbers on the back; black undershirt; piping down the shoulders to the ends of the sleeves, which starts with black on the outside, through gray and white to a thick red line at the center. White pants with red black-buckled belt, and red socks with three medium gray stripes bordered in black. Red caps with black brims and the wolf's-head logo in black under the silver gradient "A."
