The following is the list of players on the Indianapolis ABCs all-time roster. These are Indianapolis ABCs players who appeared in at least one game for the ABCs from 1907 to 1918 and 1920 to 1926.
On-going research continuously discovers unreported or misreported games (and the affected players), while some games and players may be lost forever. Therefore, some Negro league players' affiliations will likely remain incomplete and possibly disputed.
