Originally established in 1894 as the Grand Rapids Rustlers, the now current Cleveland Indians have been members of the American League since 1901, later joining the Central Division in 1994. The Indians have a long history of serious and hard play. Will the Cleveland based team toss off their curse and clinch this season’s title? Don’t miss a moment of the action; get your Cleveland Indians tickets today!
The Wahoos began their baseball life under many other monikers including the Cleveland Lake Shores, Bluebirds, Bronchos and Naps before morphing into the team that fans know and love today. Holders of multiple division and league titles, pennants and a couple of World Series championship triumphs, the Tribe had undergone a championship title drought for 60 plus years. Referred to as the “The Curse of Rocky Colavito,” the Tribe’s lean period is rumored to be due to a 1960 swap of player Rocky Colavito for a Detroit Tigers player.
As with any competitive sport, and especially in MLB, rivalry rears its ugly head. The Cleveland Indians’ interstate rivalry with the Cincinnati Reds is intense, never leaving fans with a dull moment of on-field action. Some of this contention can be attributed to the Ohio Cup, which pits the two teams against one another.
Regardless if it’s a home or away game, the Cleveland Indians presence draws a crowd of fans that, from 1995 to 2001, led to a consecutive sellout of more than 450 home games! Fans show their love at the games and in rave reviews. Catch a game at Great American Ballpark and cheer your favorite players on to victory when you purchase your Cleveland Indians tickets today!
