From The Indianapolis Star, Monday, April 26, 1926:  The first broadcast of the opening Indians baseball game from Washington Park will be made Thursday through special arrangements by The Indianapolis Star and radio station WFBM.  Fitting festivities will welcome Ownie Bush and his Indians back in town to play their first game of the season before the home folks.  It will be a return series with the Kansas City Blues with whom the Tribe was victorious when the American Association opened there on April 13.  W. Blaine Patton, The Star sports editor, will be at the microphone for the broadcast and will give an entertaining and realistic play-by-play account of the game.  Every Indiana baseball fan who is unable to see this game from the stands can hear a graphic description of every detail by tuning into The Star’s program.
