Down. Since the All-Star Break, Cleveland’s record is 18-20, and the team has been clawing hard to get over .500. They find themselves coming into the series with Boston one game over .500. The best stretch of baseball for Cleveland since the break was a three-game set, including the final game played in Williamsport, as the Little League Classic, where the club proceeded to sweep the Los Angeles Angels.
