The Cleveland Indians, the Major League Baseball team based in Ohio, reportedly plans to drop its name as soon as this week, which would make them the second major league sports team to remove a reference to Native Americans from its team name in 2020.
The New York Times, citing three people who spoke on the condition of anonymity, reports that the decision has already been made to change the team’s name and could be announced later in the week. It’s not clear when the name change would take effect.
