What Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred said about Chief Wahoo before World Series Game 2

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred said before Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday night that "logos are primarily a local matter."

But he's going to speak with the Indians about Chief Wahoo, planning a meeting with Indians CEO Paul Dolan after the World Series.

Confirming his earlier comments in a Wednesday radio interview, Manfred said during a pregame news conference at Progressive Field when asked by cleveland.com that the World Series has heightened the attention on the Indians' logo.

"Obviously, when a team's in the World Series, there's a spotlight on that team," Manfred said.
