Bowling Green Hot Rods Get New Look

The Bowling Green Hot Rods, Midwest League Single-A affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays, unveiled their new logos, uniforms, and colour scheme yesterday evening. The new look was designed by New York-based SME Branding.

“We partnered with SME Branding when we purchased the Reno Aces and we knew they would be the perfect fit to help us create and redesign the Hot Rods brand” – Hot Rods owner Stuart Katzoff to MiLB.com

Blue and orange replace the old colour scheme of black, yellow, and red. Blue a nod to Kentucky, “The Bluegrass State”, and orange as that is the colour a rod turns as it is heated. Y’know, a “hot rod”.
