Cleveland Indians Tickets |
Anaheim Angels Tickets |
For Cleveland Indians tickets at Jacobs Field in Cleveland, OH. The Indians chose the name "Indians" on a play on the name of the 1914 Boston Braves, who were known as the "Miracle Boston Braves" after going from last place on July 4 to a sweep in the World Series. Key players for the Cleveland Indians over the years included Earl Averill, Lou Boudreau, Stan Coveleski, Larry Doby, Bob Feller, Elmer Flick, Addie Joss, Nap Lajoie, Bob Lemon, Al Lopez, Joe Sewell, Tris Speaker, Early Wynn Professional baseball began in Cleveland in 1870, as it did with other major cities following the success of the Cincinnati Red Stockings of 1869-1870, the first openly professional baseball club. Jacobs Field is one of the contributing factors to the revitalization of downtown Cleveland. Opening in 1994, it replaced Cleveland Stadium, which the Indians shared with the NFL's Cleveland Browns . The Indians' move to "The Jake" coincided with the coming of age of an outstanding young team, and the Indians soon became the hottest ticket in Cleveland. The ballpark set a major league record between 1995 and early 2001 by selling out 455 straight games. Demand for tickets was so great that they sold out all 81 home games before opening day on three separate occasions. The Indians "retired" the number 455 in honor of this outstanding record. |
