Indians Advance to World Series
After eliminating the Texas Rangers 4-3 in the League Championship Series at Jacobs Field 1994-2014, the victorious Cleveland Indians will now move on to the next round: the World Series.

Cleveland beat Texas 4-2 in the series. The MVP trophy was awarded to Indians right fielder Austin Jackson, who knocked in 7 runs, hit .385 and scored 7 times.

"The guys were all chanting 'M-V-P' when I went into the clubhouse," Jackson said later, with a smile. "It was kind of embarrassing but it feels great to be here."

The Cleveland Indians will play against the Colorado Rockies in the next round. Colorado won their series against the New York Mets 4 games to 1. The World Series schedule will be announced after the League Championship Series finishes.
