The Indians Won Their First Division Title Since 2007 Last Night And The Locker Room Celebration Was Wild

The Indians clinched their first division title last night since 2007. It would have been great to clinch at home yesterday but clinching in Detroit was pretty pretty sweet too.  The locker room after was a damn party, but you guys knew it would be. Let’s do a little recap.

The bash started off with a nice little “Fuck Paul Hoynes” chant. Seemed all in good fun though

You guys know where the party is at

“We’re gonna party and we’re gonna enjoy it and we’re gonna party and we’re gonna enjoy it again”

Tito was absolutely lit last night

A common theme of the night was to pour a gallon of beer on whoever was getting interviewed

Jose said some stuff

“It hurts so good. Uh, I wish we would’ve lost”

I would have paid good money to be apart of this celebration

Double fist Stone Cold style. Hopefully we see Kip go full on Kevin Love and just drench himself in beer… but that’ll be for a celebration down the road

“Souvenir City”

Underwood- “AH, SHIT”

Don’t know what this is or what they’re saying but I want in

The party went all through the night and ended with Kip taking a little nap in a Detroit hotel hallway. Who knows, they might still be partying in Greektown right now.

If they actually fell asleep last night, the players are probably waking up right now to the best headache they’ve had in their lives.

I say we do this whole celebration thing again in a couple weeks.

Watch former Indians shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera’s mammoth walk-off bat flip

9/10.

Two handed flips are always more emphatic but a little tougher to execute. You get too much extension with one arm, who knows where that sucker is going. No problems here. He got one and a half rotations with the bat and landed it perfectly parallel to the ground. And like Larry Bird in the 1988 3 point contest, he knew he got it. Didn’t even have to watch it clear the fence.

He’s also blonde now too, so that’s a thing.

 

Happy Friday.
