NEW YORK -- To paraphrase Lloyd Bridges' character in the movie “Airplane,” the Cleveland Indians picked the wrong week to give up winning every game.
After rolling into the postseason with 33 wins in 37 games, the Indians were tagged as postseason favorites by the Las Vegas oddsmakers and lots of media wise guys. They justified everyone's faith during the Ohio portion of the Division Series, riding the excellent pitching of Trevor Bauer and a Francisco Lindor-fueled comeback to take a 2-0 series lead back to Yankee Stadium over the weekend.
