It’s officially baseball season in Spokane.

The Indians, who will present their Community Fan Fest at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday at Avista Stadium, had their first workout on Tuesday in preparation for Friday’s High-A Northwest League season-opening game at Vancouver.

Spokane’s home opener will be Tuesday at 6:35 p.m. against Eugene.

The Indians return 10 players from 2022. The roster features two top-10 draft picks and five of the Colorado Rockies’ top 10 prospects, including former Gonzaga pitcher Gabriel Hughes, the 10th overall pick of the 2022 MLB draft.
