On the Ohio team, Spiders, he urged everyone to call the team, The Indians. Unfortunately, due to his personal battles, he didn’t stay but the name did.

At the time, the polical climate and the civil unrest that followed spurred the change. Dolan came to the conclusion that it was time to change the name from Cleveland Indians to one that was more positive.
