So You Think You're a Cleveland Indians Fan? tests and expands your knowledge of Indians baseball. Rather than merely posing questions and providing answers, this book will give you the details behind each--stories that bring to life players and managers, games and seasons. This book is divided into multiple parts, with progressively more difficult questions in each new section. Along the way, you'll learn more about the great Indians players and managers of the past and present, from Nap Lajoie to Tris Speaker, Cy Young, Bob Feller, Lou Boudreau, Bob Lemon, Rocky Colavito, Gaylord Perry, Sandy Alomar Jr., Omar Vizquel, Jim Thome, Corey Kluber, and so many more. The many questions that this book answers include:

Who was the only Indians player to be named MVP of the All-Star Game?

Who is the only pitcher in team history to win at least 30 games in a season?

Which Cleveland Indians player led the team in home runs during the 1960s?

In 1987, the Indians had two pitchers on their staff who were later enshrined into the Hall of Fame. Who were they?

This book makes the perfect gift for any fan of the Tribe!
