They play baseball on Indian Island at the Penobscot Reservation. Louis Sockalexis, a Penobscot, was the first major league Native American player for the Cleveland Spiders. Guess why they changed their names to the Indians.
AS A DODGER FAN, A LIBERAL, AND DESCENDANT OF PENOBSCOTS, I SAY, LET THE ATLANTA TEAM KEEP THE BRAVES NAME AND TOMAHAWK CHOP. THEY MEAN NO HARM, AND CREATE A HEALTHY INTEREST IN NATIVE CULTURE AND CUSTOMS.
