Cleveland's Major League Baseball team has revealed its new team name changing from the Indians to the Guardians. And they relied on a famous baseball fan with a strong connection to the town to make the big reveal. MSNBC's Brian Williams has the details.
The American League Championship Series is a matchup between the free-spending, 27-time World Series champions New York Yankees and the long-suffering, low-budget Cleveland Guardians, who are chasing their first ring since 1948. It’s a classic baseball morality tale — the scrappy small-market upstarts taking on the pinstriped blue bloods. But like most morality tales, the truth is more complicated than the narratives of good vs. evil or rich vs. poor.
While the Dolan-owned Guardians consistently rank among the lowest payrolls in the game, the team’s owners in the 1990s consistently had one of the highest payrolls, which produced a run that included two World Series appearances, five consecutive division titles and a mix of homegrown stars, expensive veterans and a few future Hall of Famers.
