Indians to honor the history of Negro Leagues in IndianapolisINDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indianapolis Indians are gearing up for a big weekend at Victory Field. It will feature a range of family friendly events, from Friday’s post-game fireworks to yoga on Sunday, but Saturday is extra special because it’s Negro Leagues Night. The night will pay tribute to the history of Negro Leagues in Indianapolis. Oscar Charleston, Indy native and Negro Leagues star, managed the team in the 1950s, according to the Indianapolis Indians website. “We get to just elevate and use our platform to educate fans that come out,” Indianapolis Indians director of communications Cheyne Reiter said.
