Bio/Historical NoteThe Spokane Indians were the first professional sports team to feature a Native American language on their jerseys. In Spokane - or Sp’q’n’i - both the tribe and its namesake team have worked hard in recent decades to establish the name Spokane Indians as a tribute, as opposed to just a mascot. In 2006, the tribe helped to create new circular team logo, with words written in the Salish language. In 2014, the tribe worked with the team in creating the new Sp'q'n'i jersey, and supplied the team with an accurate rendering of the word (which also includes a final symbol not found in the English alphabet). This particular shirt was worn by Anderson Tejeda during the 2014 season.
