What is this piece of crap, you ask?
This was, apparently, the Jay Leno-esque logo used by the Red Sox in the '50s. I'm not sure what the yellow stripe is on his head nor what that is above it, but it looks like buttocks. No wonder they sucked rocks and never finished higher than 3rd. Poor Ted Williams. He couldn't do everything.
Actually, the '60s were even worse for the Sox, where from 1960-66, they didn't finish higher than 7th. They turned it around somehow in 1967 when they reached the World Series against the Cardinals, but Bob Gibson, who sat out July and August with a broken leg, handed them their arses on a platter by hitting a home run in Game 7 and only allowing 3 runs in his 3 victories.

However, they had this much cooler logo from 1960-78, but futility, failure and mediocrity continued.
