CLEVELAND, Ohio – For years the biggest thing working against prior Indian managers was the dreaded “June Swoon”. It didn’t matter if it was Eric Wedge, Manny Acta or even Tito Francona, it just always seemed as though no matter what kind of start the Indians would have, they seemed to fall apart in June. This season has been the exact opposite.
The Indians currently sit atop of the American League Central and are on pace to have one of the best months in club history. They began June by winning six straight, including a sweep over the Kansas City Royals at home.
