Captain America at Victory Field

Indianapolis Indians News Release


It is a time of turmoil among the superheroes as Captain America falls into a civil war among the Avengers on May 6. In preparation for his battle, Captain America has traveled all the way to Indianapolis and now it is up to Tribe fans to help him in the ultimate battle between good and evil.

On April 30, be sure to join the Indianapolis Indians for the first of three MARVEL Super Hero Nights, presented by the Indiana National Guard. During the April 30 game, Captain America himself will be greeting fans and signing autographs, in between his quest for justice.

As well as meeting the heroes, the first lucky 2,500 fans into Victory Field will receive a Captain America bobble head.

The Indians players and coaches will also try their hand in becoming heroes. Donning special jerseys, the team will be participating in a fundraiser to benefit a Central Indiana not-for-profit. These games also include an in-game, online auction where fans can own these game-worn, unique jerseys.

The auctions are powered by Indianapolis-based Qtego. Fans are not required to be at Victory Field to bid and win; all they need is a mobile phone. Qtego notifies participants via text message throughout the online auction so opportunities to bid, re-bid or outbid others occur in real time. Bids during these auctions are accepted through the 7th inning. Fans at the game are invited to visit a bright orange Qtego display around the ballpark for assistance, while fans not in attendance may register via instructions that will be posted on the Indians website and social media threads.

In 2015 Indianapolis Indians jersey auctions raised more than $32,000 for local charities.

Captain America will not be the only Avenger to make an appearance at Victory Field: fans will be able to meet Iron Man on May 21 and the Hulk on June 25.

Be sure to get your tickets now for any one of these exciting Super Hero nights! The Avengers await you.
