“Do you see?” read the title of the post.
The logo features the silhouette of a batter ready to hit the ball, however depending on how you look at it, a batter can be left or right handed.
The post received hundreds of comments with people explaining their responses.
“Punches with the left hand. For holding a stick,” wrote one user. Many agreed that the batter was left-handed.
However, there were also numerous commentators who argued otherwise.
“Right looking over left shoulder,” another person wrote.
Despite all the comments, no one seems to be able to agree on an answer.
Some decided to make a joke instead of a real answer.
“It’s a bird’s beak looking at a point,” wrote one person.
“Definitely delivered that’s for sure,” wrote another.
One person provided historical context for the logo when trying to find an answer: “The silhouette is supposed to be based on Harmon Killebrew, who was right-handed. However, the designers made the decision to make the logo ambiguous, so which is seen for both lefties and righties. Technically, both answers are correct,” they wrote.
However, despite rumors that Killebrew was the player featured on the logo, creator Jerry Dior stated that the logo was not inspired by a specific player.
