Cleveland Guardians fans react to ALDS Game 5 win [Video]

For the first time in eight years, the Cleveland Guardians will play in the ALCS.

CLEVELAND — For decades, Cleveland Guardians fans have been given little to hope for when it comes to win or go home games in the playoffs.

Eight years ago, Cleveland found themselves in the ALCS en route to winning the pennant. Given the loaded roster they were able to build going into the 2017 season, including adding Jay Bruce mid-season, it is hard to believe it took them eight years to return to the Championship Series.

And that makes it all the sweeter.

Just as the thousands of Guardians’ faithful that were sent into a craze during the many defining moments of Game 5, social media was abuzz with excitement and reaction. The latter of which can be seen below.
