Listen, this is not going to be a high-effort post, I admit that. But the Cleveland Guardians have won the AL Central for the first time since 2018, and we all deserve a moment or seven to soak in their celebrations in the Globe Life Field visitor clubhouse.
For those of you not on Twitter, enjoy these captures from Guardians beat writers Paul Hoynes, Mandy Bell, and Zack Meisel, as well as Bally Sports Cleveland.
