CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Indians have moved on from "What If?" and "Unfinished Business." They want fans to forget the handy, popular "Only In Cleveland" mantra.
The team has selected "Only Here" for its 2016 branding campaign, a phrase intended to celebrate Progressive Field's memorable moments. For that reason, Kenny Lofton, Travis Hafner and Bill Selby will appear at the ballpark for Opening Day festivities on April 4.
Akron native Patrick Carney, drummer for the band The Black Keys, will throw out the ceremonial first pitch. William Clarence Marshall, an operatic singer who has made appearances with The Cleveland Orchestra, will sing the national anthem.
