Yankees Stay Resilient & The Indians Will Stay Indians For Me

Saturday, October 19, 2024 9:13

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

The Indians are tough. No other way to describe it. If anyone thought that Cleveland would roll over while in Cleveland, they would be sadly mistaken. Last night the Yankees came together as a team, alittle from everyone to pull through in the win and brought us to 3 and 1 in the ALCS, but never for a second think that we got this in the bag.

Yes, Stanton has been great. Yes, Kahnle was on and by the way, Gleyber Torres is the unsung hero. Mark Leiter Jr couldn’t pitch himself out of a paper bag in the regular season… but last night he did his job. By the way, back to Gleyber, he’s been incredible in the post season for us, but we’re not done yet. And those Cleveland fans? They are really extraordinary. Bottom line we cannot celebrate until we can.

Stanton said. “As far as I’m concerned, we haven’t done nothing.”

Stanton played a starring role in Game 3 as part of the one-two punch that stunned Emmanuel Clase, baseball’s best closer, with two outs in the eighth inning. First Aaron Judge lasered a tying two-run home run. Then Stanton hammered the go-ahead blast. It was the first time Clase had given up multiple home runs in a game in his career.”

The best part of last night? Boone didn’t use Luke Weaver. He was becoming obsessed with him and to not use him gives the kid a night off and the Indians become less familiar. It was a good move by Boone. What wasn’t a good move was putting Jazz Chisholm in the 4-hole. I understand the building of confidence for Austin Wells and dropping him in the lineup, but there were more worthy guys right now to drop in the 4-hole… Jazz is not one of them.

Whatever the case, things worked out and Cleveland, while fighting hard, were defeated. Yanks win 8-6.

Next game? Today. Let’s get this Yanks!

Oh and by the way, I leave you with this; I got an email, someone asked my why I still use the word “Indians” when describing the Guardians. Well, it’s two-fold. For 1, it’s generational. I grew up when the Indians were the Indians. Two, the decision to change the name was because a bunch of people with no connection to the history of the name decided to take it upon themselves and change it like they were the hero, and that’s weak and they should be ashamed.

You see, Louis Sockalexis a member of the Penobscot tribe played ball for the Cleveland Spiders in 1897. the Owner at the time had Louis on the team and changed the name to Indians. While this may mean nothing to you, it was significant at the time for a Native American to play baseball. Now because Louis was Native American, he got a lot of crap for it. A sign of the times… America was never perfect; we still aren’t when it comes to race. But these days if you ask Louis’s relatives, the Indian name carries on Louis’s legacy as a Native American in the major leagues.

According to the Maine Public:

“Indian Island resident Chris Sockalexis, whose grandfather, Byron Sockalexis, was a second cousin once removed of Louis Sockalexis, is one of the few remaining distant relatives of Louis…

“Our biggest concern with the name change is that the history of Louis Sockalexis within the [team] may become lost in the shuffle. We do not want the legacy of Louis to fade into the background.”

According to Ed Rice, author of “Baseball’s First Indian: The Story of Penobscot Legend Louis Sockalexis.”, “By the time he was a teenager, he was playing on teams with adults,” Rice said. “He was clearly an extraordinary player — better than most of the adults he ended up playing with.”

I am a big fan of true history. Not history that is made up and changed because people today think they’re helping. The truth is Louis will be forgotten because the Indians changed their name to the Guardians. What the hell’s a Guardian anyway?

So for me, it will always be Indians. And hopefully tonight the Yankees beat the Indians and advance to the World Series. Let’s hope.
