In this week’s edition of The Inside Line, IndyStar motorsports insider Nathan Brown and co-host Joey Barnes break down everything that was in this year’s Indy 500, from Alex Palou’s late-race win — and the pass that made it so on Marcus Ericsson — to other standout performances and disappointing ones throughout the field. The pair also dive into the post-race penalties and what they believe IndyCar would’ve done had Ericsson won with an illegally modified car, as well as the Fox broadcast and IndyCar’s massive ratings win from it.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indianapolis Indians are bringing a packed lineup of family-friendly events to Victory Field this week as they continue a seven-game homestand against the Nashville Sounds, Triple-A affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers.

After kicking off the series with a Memorial Day win on Monday that extended their home winning streak to eight games and raised over $8,000 for INvets, the Indians resume play on Wednesday evening with a slate of themed nights through Sunday.

The week starts with Youth Clinic Night on Wednesday, where children 14 and younger can learn baseball and softball fundamentals directly from Indians players and coaches. Gates open at 5 p.m. for the clinic, which precedes a 6:35 p.m. first pitch. Fans can also take advantage of Half-Off Wednesday Night ticket prices, presented by AAA Insurance and Best-One of Indy.

On Thursday, fans are invited to bring their furry friends for Bark in the Park, presented by Pacifico, PetSuites and Tito’s Handmade Vodka. Dog tickets are $7, with proceeds supporting local pet charities. The popular Thirsty Thursday promotion also returns, offering $3 Busch Light cans, $3 draft beers and $2 Pepsi fountain drinks. Gates open at 5:30 p.m., with the game beginning at 6:35 p.m.

Friday features Friday Fireworks and Chick-fil-A Night, with postgame fireworks lighting up the skyline following the 7:05 p.m. game. Fans who purchase a Chick-fil-A Family Pack can receive special surprises at the ballpark.

The weekend wraps up with two fan-favorite theme nights: “Star Wars” Night on Saturday, and Sunday Characters on Sunday, which will feature appearances from Peppa and George Pig.

All games will be at Victory Field in downtown Indianapolis.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Below-normal temperatures will persist over the next few days. The pattern will turn much warmer as we head into the new month of June this weekend.

Tuesday:

A cloudy, cool, and at times damp weather pattern will continue as we return to work for the short week. Expect mostly cloudy to completely overcast skies at times during the day. Scattered showers will develop heading into the afternoon hours.

High temperatures will struggle, only reaching the mid to upper 60s this afternoon.

Tuesday night:

Showers and a few thunderstorm chances will continue into the overnight hours. For most areas, rainfall should be relatively light, but heavy downpours are possible with any embedded thunderstorms.

Overnight lows will fall into the mid-50s.

Wednesday:

The wet weather pattern will persist with considerable cloud cover, slightly warmer temperatures, scattered showers, and a few thunderstorms on Wednesday afternoon. High temperatures will top out near 70°F.

Late week:

A nearby system on Thursday could bring shower chances to parts of the state, though it remains unclear how close the system will get. Many areas will likely stay dry as temperatures begin to moderate, reaching the mid-70s on Thursday and Friday.

Isolated showers and possibly a few thunderstorms are possible on Friday and heading into the weekend. The last day of May on Saturday should be very warm, with highs in the mid to upper 70s.

Seasonable, if not warmer-than-average, temperatures will continue into June, with highs near 80°F on Sunday and lower 80s by Tuesday. The 8-to-14-day forecast also indicates warmer-than-normal temperatures over the next couple of weeks.
