  • Indians Party Like It's 1997 After Winning Pennant
    Indians party like it's 1997 after winning pennant Cleveland will host Game 1 of the World Series for first time in its history By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | 12:38 AM ET TORONTO -- They took turns passing the trophy around. A bottle in one hand and the hardware in the other, one by one, Cleveland's players savored their moment. They would stare at it, champagne dripping from the gold eagle that sits atop the black base, pausing for a moment before posing for photos. In that brief personal moment, the players probably thought about all that had to happen for the Indians to reach this stage, for that trophy to be placed in their arms. Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Blue Jays in Game 5 of the American League Championship Series, a victory that clinched the franchise's sixth AL pennant, gave the world a look at what has defined this Indians team all season long, and why it is now going to the World Series. "I'm just really happy that we're standing here today," said Indians president Chris Antonetti, as his players partied on the other side of Rogers Centre's visitors' clubhouse. "However we got here, I'm not sure I've reflected back on. But this team, the resiliency, the grit, the perseverance to overcome all that they've gone through over the course of the season ..." More champagne bottles popped behind him. "The guys we have are not focused on who's not here," he continued, "but focused on the guys that are here and [they] try to find a way to help them win.

  • Feller Still a Cleveland Star -- in Tribe Archives Hall Of
    Feller still a Cleveland star -- in Tribe archives Hall of Famer's artifacts center stage at Progressive Field exhibit By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | January 20th, 2016 CLEVELAND -- Jeremy Feador placed a manila folder on a counter and carefully flipped it open, revealing a stack of papers. The protected letter on top was from the National Baseball Hall of Fame, complete with an image of the brick building on the letterhead, notifying Bob Feller on his election in 1962. Feador, the Indians' team curator, then pulled out a Western Union telegram from beneath that letter. The small, yellow slip of paper, which included a red banner and a depiction of roses, was addressed to Feller and read: My most sincere congratulations. I am honored to go into the Hall of Fame with you. Jackie Robinson. "It's just such a neat piece of baseball history," Feador said with a smile. "To see the kind of respect between both players in a telegram like this is really neat, and kind of just an incredible piece of baseball history. You have two legendary names on this document." That telegram, along with many more just like it from a long list of historic names from baseball's past, were unearthed in the basement of the former Bob Feller Museum in Van Meter, Iowa. After the Feller museum closed more than a year ago, the Indians worked closely with Feller's son, Steve, and the city of Van Meter to determine the best way to handle the large collection of artifacts. The Indians were able to bring a large portion of the items to Cleveland, where many pieces now are on display in the Bob Feller exhibit in the stadium's Terrace Club for fans to enjoy.

  • Indians — That Other Team in World Series — Also Eager to End Drought by Associated Press, Adapted by Newsela Staff on 10.26.16 Word Count 879
    Indians — that other team in World Series — also eager to end drought By Associated Press, adapted by Newsela staff on 10.26.16 Word Count 879 Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman (right) celebrates after Game 6 of the National League baseball championship series against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois, October 22, 2016. The Cubs won 5-0 to win the series and advance to the World Series against the Cleveland Indians. Photo: AP Photo/David J. Phillip CLEVELAND, Ohio — The Cleveland Indians would be the sentimental choice in the World Series in any other year, against any other team. Fans would support the Indians because it has been so long since they've won the World Series. But the Indians are facing the Chicago Cubs. The lovable Cubbies captured the nation's heart by overcoming curses and winning their first National League championship since 1945 on Saturday night. They are aiming for their first Series title since 1908 and are a popular pick. Oddsmakers Like The Cubs The oddsmakers in Las Vegas, Nevada, who predict sports results, have pegged the Cubs as heavy favorites going into Game 1 on Tuesday night. President Barack Obama is a die-hard fan of the White Sox on the South Side of Chicago, Illinois. Even Obama said he was happy to see the North Side of Chicago rocking for the Cubs. Well, all the love toward the N.L. champions has left the Indians as underdogs — a role they've embraced this October. "We believe in each other," first baseman Mike Napoli said Sunday before the Indians held a workout and practice game at Progressive Field.

  • Huntington Park Named Ballpark of the Year
    For release August 12, 2009 Huntington Park named Ballpark of the Year Despite intense and high-priced competition, Columbus, Ohio’s Huntington Park has been named the best in the land. The first-year home of the Columbus Clippers of the International League was named Ballpark of the Year by BASEBALLPARKS.COM. Site webmaster Joe Mock made the announcement today. The honor is presented to the new baseball stadium with the best combination of superior design, attractive site selection and fan amenities. The award will be presented in a ceremony prior to the Clippers’ home game Sunday, September 6 th . “I think this year’s award is even more special than in the past,” said Mock. “First, this is the tenth straight year we’ve presented this honor. Second, we’ve never seen so much competition for the award.” Indeed, the stadiums in the running for the honor this year include all new parks in pro baseball, and those that were essentially rebuilt. This year, that included three new spring-training parks, two parks in the Majors (both in New York) and five in the affiliated Minors. Joining the list were the extensively renovated stadiums in Kansas City and Visalia, California. “When you consider that the Mets’ and Yankees’ new parks were eligible and over two billion dollars were spent building those two, then it’s an understatement to say that there was stiff competition this season,” Mock remarked. “To receive this award in a year when there were no less than a dozen new facilities brought on-line, and two of them major league facilities at that, is rather overwhelming and humbling,” said Ken Schnacke, President and General Manager of the Clippers.
