Francisco Lindor Teaches a New Generation of Ballplayers at Historic League Park

After returning to Cleveland from their nine-game road trip, Indians players had a well-deserved day off on Thursday to regroup and get ready for the upcoming home stand. 22-year-old phenom Francisco Lindor used that day off to spend a couple hours with kids from the Cleveland Baseball Federation.

The event was held at the recently renovated League Park, where Cleveland’s professional baseball teams called home from 1891-1946.

It was an interesting dichotomy of generations and eras.

Cy Young delivered the first pitch there as a member of the Cleveland Spiders in 1891.

The Cleveland Indians won the 1920 World Series there.
