Indianapolis Indians Earn ‘Team of The Year’

The 12 millionth fan is expected at tonight's game against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

The Indianapolis Indians have been named Team of the Year by an industry publication. Ballpark Digest, which focuses on "the Business of Baseball and Ballparks," said the organization delivers "a quality product in a competitive market on a continual basis" the way few others can. The Indians have led Minor League Baseball in attendance or set franchise attendance records in three of the last five years.

Indians President and General Manager Randy Lewandowski says "it’s exciting for us an organization, for our staff and our fans. It’s something that we’ll really carry with pride throughout the offseason."

The team has its final two regular home games of the year Friday and Saturday and says it’s still in the hunt for the MiLB lead this season.
