In Game

Guardians Fever has spread all over northeastern Ohio as the Tribe made their first World Series appearance since 1997 last season. While the end result wasn’t what Cleveland fans were hoping for, the team’s success has reignited the city’s love affair with the Tribe. You’ll see lots of red, white, and blue around town on game days and there is lots of buzz surrounding the team making it the perfect time to take in an Guardians game at Progressive Field.

It’s not just the team’s recent success and a revitalized fan base that make attending an Guardians game a great time. Progressive Field is one of the finest ballparks in the country, and it’s chalked full of tributes to legendary Guardians players and teams of the past. You’ll see lots of artwork and memorabilia on the concourse, and Heritage Park out in the outfield is a must-see for any baseball fan.

Finally, no matter where you’re sitting you’ll have an excellent view of all the action on the field. Even if you do miss some of the action don’t worry as it’ll be recapped on The Jake’s humongous scoreboard.

A trip to Cleveland is a great experience for any baseball lover, and there is no better time to take in an Guardians game than right now when the team has the entire city abuzz with excitement.
