The month of July was not kind to the Cleveland Indians. The team had struggles finding the win column and the trade deadline seemed to doom the season for the organization. Luckily, the month of August was a much better period for the team. While the Tribe didn’t look like world beaters, they at least held their own and raised some optimism around the club.
Offensively, the month of August saw Cleveland finish second in stolen bases (32), third in hits (252), eighth in RBI (131), ninth in runs (136), tied for ninth in doubles (50) and 10th in home runs (40).
