Cleveland Indians Tickets

The Cleveland Indians will be vying for a World Series championship in 2012, as their championship win was in 1948. Despite such a long incubation period, loyal fans turn out at HeadlineTickets.com year after year for Cleveland Indians season tickets to watch their team fight for former glory. And Cleveland Indians ticket holders have certainly gotten their moneys worth in 2012 -- the Indians' April 5th, 2012 game against the Blue Jays was the longest opening day game (innings) in the history of Major League Baseball, lasting 16 innings and more than five hours. This game also broke the opening day attendance record for their ballpark, Progressive Field.

The Indians were first established in 1901, and have since captured two World Series championships, in 1920 and 48. The "Tribe" or "Wahoos," as fans affectionately refer to their favorite team, tallied a regular season record of 8,771-8,449 to end the 2011 season, a winning percentage a tad over 50 percent. The Indians spent their longest stretch playing at historic Cleveland Stadium from 1932 to 1993 before moving to Progressive Field in 1994. Although Shoeless Joe Jackson is perhaps more famous for his success (and scandal) as a White Sox player, he also holds the Indians single season batting average record for the club to this day, logging a .408 average in 1911.
