Nicknamed, The Tribe, the Cleveland Indians are a Major League Baseball team based in Cleveland, Ohio. Cleveland Indiansare in the Central Division of the American League.
American Indian protesters have always raised their voices against the club’s nickname and its cartoon logo and three were arrested in 1997 during the World Series.
Open professional baseball began in Cleveland in 1869 and one team was hired on salary for 1870. The Forest City club formed around 1865, when the baseball club organization and "national" association membership boomed following the Civil War.
The Forest Cities of Cleveland and Rockford, Illinois joined the new National Association of Professional Base Ball Players, the first professional league in 1871. Before the league era, New York and Philadelphia had been the home cities of most top baseball clubs but only one club from each city joined the NA, whose nine-city circuit was made up by four western clubs and eastern rivals in Washington, Troy, and Boston.
N.A was replaced by the National League in 1876 but Cleveland became a part of it in 1879.
There was no major league ball in Cleveland for only two seasons before joining the American Association in 1887. The league's Allegheny club jumped to the N.L and so did Cleveland in 1889 breaking the Association as a result. The Cleveland Indians team started gaining power slowly by acquiring the unique nickname Spiders, a tag supposedly inspired by their long-limbed players. But the team slowly faded away under the ownership of the Robison brothers despite the fact that they were successful in winning in the Temple Cup Series in 1895.
NL disbanded the Cleveland franchise along with three other teams in Washington, Baltimore, and Louisville, following the 1899 season. Who knew that this would eventually be the start of a future!
The original owners of the new team were Charles W. Somers and Jack Kilfoy with Somers lending money to other team owners, to keep them afloat. Napoleon "Nap" Lajoie, a Philadelphia Phillies star joined the new team and hence its was nicknamed Naps.
The team managed two second-place finishes but spent much of the 1920 decade in the cellar.
By 1930s the Cleveland Indians were a middling team, finishing third or fourth most years. All changed when 17-year old named Bob Feller was introduced in 1936. A pitcher with a dominating fastball, he struck out 17 batters in his first game. By 1940, Feller, along with Ken Keltner, Mel Harder and Lou Boudreau led the Indians to within one game of the pennant.
Bill Veeck’s investment group purchased the team in 1946. Veeck had a natural gift for promotion and moved the club out of League Park and into Municipal Stadium where they set the all-time one game regular-season attendance record in 1954 at over 84,000.
Veeck also broke the color barrier in the American League by signing Larry Doby who was formerly a player for the Negro League's Newark Eagles in 1947.
Daley's syndicate sold the Cleveland Indians to frozen food millionaire Vernon Stouffer in 1966. The Jacobs brothers, Richard and David bought it in 1986.
Cleveland Indians slide on the ball field continued until the Tribe's inaugural season at Jacobs Field in the strike-shortened year of 1994.
