Cleveland Indians Changing Logo After Years of Protest
After years of protest, the Cleveland Indians will remove Chief Wahoo from their uniforms starting in 2019. Chat Sports Founder and CEO James Yoder explains the timing behind the team's decision. Cleveland is hosting the MLB All-Star Game in 2019. Yoder believes this played a role in the team's decision to abandon Chief Wahoo.
