Cleveland Indians back in primetime in September

The Cleveland Indians are back on Sunday Night Baseball in September, marking the second time this season the Indians are on this national stage.

The Cleveland Indians remain one of the best teams in baseball and the national media is beginning to take notice.

After making a return to Sunday Night Baseball earlier this season, the Indians are back in primetime in September.

The Indians tweeted out the announcement earlier today.

The first appearance this year was on July 9, a game I attended in which the Indians lost and Lonnie Chisenhall left with an injury.

Hoping for a bit of a better result this time around.

Past results aside, it is great to see the Indians get another game in primetime.

Fans around the nation are usually given countless Sunday night games featuring the Los Angeles Dodgers, Chicago Cubs, Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees, but this September 10 game will give fans a glimpse at an Indians team that can once again make some noise this postseason.

Another positive of this game is that it is the same day as the Cleveland Browns opener, so fans in Cleveland will get to take in two wins. Right?

The game is against the Baltimore Orioles, who are currently in the hunt of the wild American League Wild Card race, so it will be a nice showcase for two teams who aren’t in the spotlight often.
