The Cleveland Indians play the Kansas City Royals tonight at Progressive Field in the second meeting of a three-game series.

There was only one way that longtime Indians fans Stephanie Jeffirs and Meredith Schuette could possibly "top" being on a Progressive Field concourse with the chance to win some bucks in Cleveland's first hosting of the hit MLB.com game show "Bucks on the Pond," powered by Ford: Ketchup, Mustard and Onion had to be there with them.

There was lots of good pitching in the Indians 2-1 loss to the Royals on Monday night at Progressive Field.

The Royals snapped a tie in the ninth inning and beat the Cleveland Indians, 2-1, on Monday night in front of 12,803 fans at Progressive Field.

A sore left shoulder may plague Nick Swisher the rest of the season, but it isn't enough to land him on the disabled list at this point.

It has been a season full of ups and downs for the Cleveland Indians , but the always inconsistent "Tribe" appear to be on the incline once again.

Just wanted to weigh in on Bob Costas' comments following that wonderful 4-3 comeback victory for the New Mets against the Chicago Cubs on Sunday.

Last week's action around the division, with the good, the bad, and the ugly from the Tribe and their rivals.

The Kansas City Royals have leaned on their pitching staff all season and their offense is starting to come around, producing 57 runs during a 10-2 stretch.

Thomas Penfield Jackson, who as a federal judge in Washington presided over a historic Microsoft antitrust case and the drug possession trial of former Mayor Marion Barry, has died.

Stephen Strasburg's return for the Washington Nationals from the disabled list went smoothly but he was unable to prevent the Cleveland Indians recording a 2-0 victory on Sunday.

The Indians right-hander was the best pitcher at Progressive Field, outdueling Stephen Strasburg in Cleveland's 2-0 win over the Washington Nationals.

After giving up the go-ahead home run in the ninth inning of Saturday's loss, Vinnie Pestano was pretty ticked off at himself.

He was the "player to be named later" in January's Michael Morse trade but the transaction wasn't completed until late March when Krol was finally shipped to Washington.

Two pitches after his foul popup fell between the Indians' first baseman and second baseman Jason Kipnis, Rendon homered into the Nationals' bullpen off Vinnie Pestano to stun the Indians and the crowd of 33,307.

The Nationals have won four of their last five games. It is the first time Washington has won at least four games in a five-game stretch since winning five in a row from May 4-10.

In news that should shock no one, a lineup that had three Triple A quality hitters and a bunch of other ones who aren't doing so great mustered just two hits and one run while striking out thirteen times.

The Lake County Captains have three games in two games this weekend , thanks to the magic of doubleheaders.

Perez will make a rehab appearance for one of Cleveland's minor league affiliates Sunday, likely Single-A Lake County, and could rejoin the active roster the next day.
