Title town? Cleveland fans toast ALCS win
- Updated: October 20, 2016
CLEVELAND — Every out was drawing thunderous applause, and by the time the Indians clinched a World Series berth with their 3-0 win on Wednesday over the Blue Jays, fans across Cleveland could not hold in their excitement.
The win has Cleveland within reach of a second major sports crown this year, following the Cavaliers’ NBA title in June that broke the city’s 52-year championship drought. This is the first appearance for the Indians in a World Series since 1997, and they haven’t won since 1948.
