Llamas de Hickory

On select dates, the Crawdads take on the identity of the Llamas de Hickory as part of Minor League Baseball's Copa de la Diversión or "Fun Cup," which is a season-long event series designed to embrace the culture and values that resonate local U.S. Hispanic/Latino communities.

Dating back to the Incan Empire, llamas have long been revered for their utility and strength, both of which are tentpoles for the Crawdads organization. The logo holds nods to both Hickory's furniture-producing industry, see the furniture leg in the llama's mouth, and Latin America's vibrancy through the animal's colorful chullo.
