Look: MiLB teams poke fun at new Chargers logo
It's the thunderbolt.
In the past, thunderbolts have been used on numerous occasions. The Tampa Bay Lightning are probably the best example.
But when the now-Los Angeles Chargers revealed their new logo, it looked like a hybrid of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Lightning logo, all in one. To no one's surprise, it's drawn a lot of criticism.
Minor-league teams, on the other hand, have nothing to lose. So instead, they decided to join in on the fun.
