SEE PHOTO----- An original sports section of a newspaper, the Des Moines Register (IA) dated September 23, 1954 with CLEVELAND INDIANS HISTORY!! The tribe wins its 110th game of the season!! The 1954 Cleveland Indians advanced to the World Series for the first time in six years. It was the team's third American League championship in franchise history. The Indians' 111-43 record is the all-time record for winning percentage by an American League team (.721.) For more than 60 years, Cleveland had been the only team in Major League Baseball to have compiled two different 11-game winning streaks within the same season, until the Toronto Blue Jays were able to accomplish the rare feat during the 2015 regular season. However, their great regular-season record would not be enough to win the World Series, as the Indians lost in four games to the New York Giants, after which the Indians would not return to the Fall Classic until 1995. Very good condition. This listing includes the complete entire original sports section of a newspaper, NOT the completet newspaper. STEPHEN A.
