Indianapolis Indians News Release
INDIANAPOLIS- The Indianapolis Indians have announced its 2016 home finale on Saturday, Sept. 3 is sold out. Sellouts over its last two home games Friday and Saturday have the Tribe and 14,200-seat Victory Field in contention to lead Minor League Baseball in attendance in 2016.
The Indians play the Louisville Bats with first pitch at 6:05 p.m. The game features 90's Throwback Night presented by Crystal Pepsi. Players and coaches will don special throwback Indians jerseys of the early 1990s and fans will win 90's-themed prizes via a special scratch-off game card given to the first 2,000 fans through the gates. Immediately after the game fans will be treated to a special season-ending fireworks show. Gates open at 4:30 p.m.
A select number of standing room only seats will be available for purchase at the ballpark ticket windows right after the game begins ($10).
Indianapolis is in contention with Charlotte for this year's attendance crown among the 160 teams that make up Minor League Baseball, but the outcome won't be known until Monday night as the Knights (62-78) play home games through Sept. 5 while the Indians (69-72) finish the season in Louisville (69-72) on Sunday and Monday.
Indianapolis last led the Minors in attendance in 2013, and has finished runner-up to Charlotte the past two seasons after it opened 10,200-seat BB&T Ballpark in 2014. Victory Field and the Indians have set single-season attendance records the past two seasons.
