that's pretty impressive ... and they do have a chance at 26 with the way they are playingCLEVELAND, Ohio - Corey Kluber said the Indians embraced their 14-game winning streak last year. They probably learned a few things as well.
But that was a 14-game winning streak. In terms of horseflesh, it was a colt.
What the Indians are dealing with now is a full-grown Clydesdale. If this 21-game winning streak continues, they may need a team of them to haul it out of the dugout every day.
Still as Mike Clevinger said, "The flow is good." The meaning of the flow is open to interpretation, but right now it means things can't get much better.
The Indians beat the Tigers, 5-3, Wednesday to set the American League record for consecutive wins. They are tied with the 1935 Cubs for the second longest winning streak in history.
The record is held by the 1916 New York Giants with 26 wins. The streak includes a tie, but MLB recognizes the Giants as the record holders.
Cleveland - 21 in a row and still going

The Cleveland Indians' 21-game winning streak is a horse of a different color and size
