Indians' Carlos Santana wears retired, controversial logo under jersey in victory over Pirates


Indians’ first baseman Carlos Santana hit a homer in the 10th inning to help lead Cleveland to a 6-3 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates but it’s what he was wearing underneath his jersey that became the focus in Tuesday night’s win. Santana was spotted wearing an undershirt with the “Chief Wahoo” logo, a symbol previously banned in 2018 after the organization and MLB said it was “no longer appropriate,” during the game. "Over the past year, we encouraged dialogue with the Indians organization about the club's use of the Chief Wahoo logo. It’s unclear if Santana’s look Tuesday night was an honest mistake but he did end up wearing the undershirt alone in a post-game presser. The Indians dropped the symbol over mounting pressure by the Native American community but they are now looking to change their name as well.
