Indians fans defend name and logo ahead of ALCS Game 3 against Blue Jays game
TORONTO — Cleveland Indians fans in Toronto for a crucial playoff game against the Blue Jays said the team’s name and logo are not offensive and should not be changed.
Sarah Johnston said the team’s moniker has been the same “forever” and isn’t an issue in Cleveland.
“I honestly haven’t heard a thing about it until I came to Canada,” she said.
The controversy made its way to an Ontario court before Monday’s Game 3 in the American League Championship Series.
