The Cleveland Guardians achieved a historic comeback in the 2025 MLB season by overcoming a 15.5-game deficit to take the lead in the AL Central division, a feat not seen in Major League Baseball since 1914. Starting the season with only a 0.2% chance of winning the division, they have surged with an 18-5 record in September, boosting their postseason odds to over 92%. The Guardians' remarkable streak includes allowing two or fewer runs in 19 consecutive games, the second-longest since 1916. They currently hold a one-game lead over the Detroit Tigers, who have suffered an eight-game losing streak and fallen out of division lead. Cleveland's win was highlighted by key performances, including George Valera's two-run homer and Tanner Bibee's five-inning shutout effort. The team is poised to clinch a playoff spot and possibly secure the division title with wins in their final games, while Detroit struggles to recover from their slump. The Guardians' resurgence has been driven by strong pitching, consistent winning streaks, and a resilient team spirit, with managers emphasizing their focus on finishing the season strong and making history.
