It’s a great time to be a Cavs fan, but don’t forget we’ve got a couple of other sports teams here in Cleveland! The Indians had a day game yesterday where they beat the Texas Rangers 12-3. The team’s mascot Slider was in the house and threw a wave at Janine!
The Tribe is back in action tonight, this time on the West Coast against the Seattle Mariners at 10:10 PM. Roll Tribe!
That’s Cleveland Baby!!!
There’s nothing quite like heading down to Progressive Field and taking in a day game under the beautiful Cleveland sky.
Let’s go Tribe!
That’s Cleveland Baby!!!
Ran across this beautiful picture of downtown Cleveland and simply had to share it. Not sure who snapped it, but the way it shows Progressive Field, Quicken Loans Arena and the rest of the skyline lit up is awesome.
If this is your photo or you know who took it please let me know so I can give proper credit!

It’s been a brutal winter in Cleveland. I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for Spring and everything that comes along with it… BASEBALL!!!

Let’s Go Tribe… That’s Clevealnd Baby!!!
I found this little piece of brilliance on Twitter this morning while going through my feed. As you know, the Indians are hosting the Wild Card game tonight a Progressive Field against the visiting Tampa Bay Rays in a one game playoff which will determine who goes on to face the Red Sox on Friday. Here’s hoping that we get to hear the “GONE!!!” part of this flow chart quite often tonight. Let’s Go Tribe!!!
I have absolutely no ownership over this picture… but I simply HAD to share it’s brilliance. Thanks to @zgebler for putting it on paper!!!

For the first time in 6 years we’ve got October baseball here in Cleveland! Yesterday afternoon the Indians won their 10th straight game and in the process clinched the top spot in the American League wild card race. They’ll host the wild card game on Wednesday evening against either the Tampa Bay Rays of the Texas Rangers. Let’s make sure The Jake (Progressive Field) is packed… Let’s Go Tribe!!!
Will you be at the corner of Carnegie and Ontario on Wednesday night? I know I will!!!

In case you haven’t noticed (and judging by the attendance you haven’t) the Indians are in the thick of the playoff race here in late September. Last night, Jason Giambi sent the Progressive Field crowd home happy when he hit a 2-run home run in the bottom of the 9th inning to beat the Chicago White Sox.
If you’re a baseball fan you already know this, but Cleveland is lucky to have two of the best voices in the business to call our games: Matt Underwood and Tom Hamilton. Hamilton has long been known as one of the best voices in baseball and his home run calls have become iconic. Underwood… especially last night… has been taking up the mantle of home run calls as well. Here’s both of them in all their glory.
– Matt Underwood’s Call
– Tom Hamilton’s Call
I’m typically a Hamilton guy, but I think (at least for last night) I may have to give the nod to Underwood. Either way, it was an incredible win and it put the Tribe that much close to playoff baseball. Tonight the Indians close the regular season at Progressive Field. Get out and support them!

If you’ve read any of my stuff here, you’ll know that I’m a pretty big baseball fan. That said, Progressive Field (Jacob’s Field to me, but that’s another story altogether) holds a special place in my heart. I ran across this photo on Twitter the other day where user @GirlFromThe216 had is a her Twitter background. The sunset here showing through the clouds with the Terminal Tower and Progressive Field in the foreground make for an amazing photo.
What an amazing shot. Have you been out to Progressive Field yet this year? If not what’s stopping you? You could be missing out on a beautiful sunset such as this.

In case you didn’t know, the Indians are playing a true double header today against the New York Yankees. Buy a ticket and you get to watch at least 18 innings of baseball for the price of 9! That’s a great deal Cleveland!
The Tribe (as of this post) finds itself tied for first place but with the lowest attendance in the league. Come on Cleveland… show our Tribe that we love them!
That’s Cleveland Baby!
We’re well into the swing of baseball season here in Cleveland. And when you venture down to the corner of Carnegie and Ontario you’re sure to see one super fan making the rounds – Slider!!!
I’m not really sure what Slider is supposed to be (aside from a huge Tribe fan) but he does a great job cheering on our Indians. They’re going for their 7th victory in a row today down at Progressive Field. Let’s go Tribe!!!
That’s Cleveland Baby!!!
There are not words to describe the sadness around the events from the Boston Marathon yesterday. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of those affected by these tragic events.
The Cleveland Indians posted this photo to their social media accounts (Facebook and Twitter) this evening I simply had to repost.
In case you can’t read this guy’s sign it says:
“From our city, to your city.
Our hearts and prayers go out to you Boston.
Love, Cleveland”
I quite simply couldn’t have said it better myself. Here’s to you Boston. We’re with you.
That’s Cleveland Baby…
Baseball is back in Cleveland!!! The Indians opened up their home season yesterday at Progressive Field when they hosted the New York Yankees. The Home Opener (referred to by the Indians as Opening Day) sold out in only 6 minutes the day tickets went on sale to the general public. This picture was taken from my seats in section 521 and I was THRILLED to be there.
Downtown Cleveland was packed hours before the game with folks excited about Indians baseball. The weather was beautiful and even though the Tribe lost I think it’s safe to say that everyone is happy to have baseball back!
That’s Cleveland Baby!
Today’s the day Indians fans… it’s the 2013 Home Opener!!! It’s been a long time coming and fans simply cannot wait to return to Progressive Field to cheer on our Tribe!
I saw this beautiful picture on Twitter this morning capturing the incredible sunrise over Progressive Field. I can’t for the life of me find the tweet so I can’t give proper credit. If you know who took this photo PLEASE let me know so I can give credit where it’s due.
It’s baseball season. Get out and cheer for our Indians. Let’s go Tribe!
That’s Cleveland Baby!!!
As you well know, the 2013 baseball season is officially here! The Indians opened up the 2013 campaign on the road with a WIN in Toronto last night. If the buzz on Twitter for the Tribe was any indication, this town is electric for some Indians baseball this season!
And while Opening Day here in town isn’t until Monday afternoon (4:05 against the Yankees in case you’ve been living under a rock) I just had to post some Progressive Field love. This pic was actually taken on Opening Day 2011. As you can see it was a beautiful day. If the reports hold true we’re in for a similar day next Monday as well. Let’s go Tribe!!!
Who else is excited for some Indians baseball? Are you going to Opening Day on Monday?
That’s Cleveland Baby!!!
It’s been a long and cold off season for Cleveland Indians fans, but we’re finally on the home stretch toward Opening Day for our beloved Tribe. We’ll be seeing a ton of new faces when the Indians trot onto the field next week and I for one an super excited about this team.
For quite a few Clevelanders (myself included) Opening Day is a holiday that we look forward to every single day from the time the previous season ends. Thanks to the Official Cleveland Indians Facebook page for posting such an awesome photo today.

There are a couple of intersections around town that simply scream “CLEVELAND!!!”. For me this one is right up there. When I arrive at the corner of East 9th and Prospect it just feels like home. Look north and you can see the Medical Mutual building, the Key Bank building and the lake looming in the distance. Looks south and you can see Progressive Field. This particular photo looks to the east and shows the Terminal Tower which is in my opinion THE icon of the Cleveland skyline.
So what do you think… Do you have another favorite intersection in Cleveland? Send it in and we’ll get it posted!

It was announced yesterday that Carlos Baerga and John Hart will be inducted this summer into the Indians Hall of Fame. Hart was the architect and Baerga was a piece of one of the greatest teams that has ever stepped onto the baseball field… in Cleveland or otherwise. I know that I’m biased, but I’ve often said that World Series title or not, I believe the 1995 Cleveland Indians was the best team in the history of baseball. Period.
If you’ve ever heard Carlos give an interview, you know that, “Cargo Bagerga lubs Cleland.” And Cargo… I’m happy that you’ve made it to the HOF. You’ve earned it.
That’s Cleveland Baby!!!
I don’t know about you, but even though we’re looking at highs in the teens next week, I’ve got baseball on my mind.
We may not be the greatest team in the league, but we sure do have the best venue to watch our beloved Cleveland Indians. Who’s looking forward to Opening Day at Progressive Field???
That’s Cleveland Baby!!!
