Pawtucket Indians
March 26, 2019
The Pawtucket Indians were a Class AA farm club of the Cleveland Indians for two summers during the mid-1960’s. They were the first pro baseball team to play at the city’s McCoy Stadium since the Pawtucket Slaters and the New England League closed for business in 1949. After losing money on concert promotions at McCoy during the summer of 1967, club owners Jerry Waring and George Cardono moved the franchise to Waterbury, Connecticut ahead of the 1968 Eastern League season.
