Sweeping another series. The Indians are now holders of the American League Record of 21 Wins in a Row!
Wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwahoo!
I’m not an Indians fan or an AL fan. But this run is impressive as hell.
My God,that’s VERY impressive.

There’s a debate over how close Indians are to win streak record

WOW! BOOM! SHAZAM!
This belongs in chat, certainly not news.
That’s a bigger miracle than Trump winning.
They did meet in October in 1995. Braves came out on top in game 6.
It was a different time then though.
“Wouldn’t it be a hoot if they met the Braves in October! The world’s progressives would go absolutely bat bleep! “

I’m dense-——what does that mean?

And to slip into stat head mode for a second, this is a “real” streak as opposed to a fluke that’s gone on for a while.
The Indians have been pitching lights out and that’s how you win - especially in the post season. They’ve given up the fewest runs against in all of MLB and only the Dodgers are close (who also have 90+ wins already) The next closest teams are 80 or 90 runs behind.
Impressive indeed and scary for the Astros who are suddenly very human looking.
Heck of a run. Kudos from this Cards fan.
You wonder if they might actually win the World Series, even though the Dodgers have been on top of the MLB standings for most of this season. With the Cubs winning last year, the Indians now have the longest World Series championship drought, dating back to 1948.
He’s referring to how liberals hate American Indian nicknames of sports teams. So Indians vs braves would get them riled because those nicknames offend their sensibilities.
Because it’d be the two teams with Indian names.
The Dodgers have been VERY human lately.
Gotcha !!!
(I’m filled with FReeper shame for not figuring that one out.):-)
