The first of these logos belongs to the Tucson Toros, a Triple-A team from 1969 to 1997. They had some of the most incredible uniforms in the history of all baseball, witness this. The best Toros logo that I could find on the web was the 122x122 png file over at Wikipedia. OOTP logos are, of course, 150x150, so that logo, when stretched, looks slightly pixellated.

I hate pixellation.

This logo is my best attempt at recreating that logo: I traced that raster image in a vector art program (Inkscape). I think that it turned out rather well, but I want to emphasize that this is my adaption, not a 100% accurate logo. I'm not an artist; I'm a stubborn guy who really hates pixellation.

The second logo comes from this interesting website, which roots for the Oakland A's to move to San Jose. The squirrel represents the fictional San Jose Acorns, and, boy, that squirrel is one amazing baseball logo. The sharp lines in the batting stance, the oak leaf hanging from the bat, the acorn on the shirt sleeve—it's just perfect.
