Indianapolis Indians News Release
INDIANAPOLIS - The Indianapolis Indians today announced that the organization will begin its 120th season on Tuesday, April 5, 2022 against the Omaha Storm Chasers (Kansas City Royals) at Victory Field. The 144-game slate welcomes the return of six-game series, includes 72 home games, and features home dates on Mother's Day (May 8) and the Fourth of July.
The regular season is set for completion on Wednesday, Sept. 21. Every series - aside from two three-game home sets against the St. Paul Saints (Minnesota Twins) - will be six games.
Of the Indians' 144 games, 108 will be against Midwest Division opponents while the other 36 are against the Charlotte Knights (Chicago White Sox), Gwinnett Stripers (Atlanta Braves), Memphis Redbirds (St. Louis Cardinals) and Nashville Sounds (Milwaukee Brewers) from the Southeast Division and Rochester Red Wings (Washington Nationals) from the Northeast Division.
"This 2022 schedule announcement excites our organization and is another sign that more normalcy awaits next spring after a myriad of pandemic-related challenges the last two years," said Randy Lewandowski, Indianapolis Indians President and General Manager. "We look forward to providing fun, affordable professional baseball and entertainment to the Central Indiana community as we welcome our great fans to another season at Victory Field starting April 5."
The Indians haven't hosted Omaha in a season opener since 1992 while 2018 is the most recent year Indy opened a season at Victory Field.
