Cleveland Indians Jokingly Question Fan for Only Making a $5 Bet on Team

Wanna talk about how much I believed in this team coming into this year... made a bet on them winning the World Series JANUARY 4TH ✊ pic.twitter.com/wk7Tlk3ZEk

The Cleveland Indians may not have been among the World Series favorites back on January 4, but on October 18, they are just one victory away from the Fall Classic.

As a result, one fan is close to cashing in (kind of).

Cleveland grabbed a 3-0 series lead over the Toronto Blue Jays with a 4-2 win in Game 3 of the American League Championship Series on Monday. The next morning, Twitter user @MarronMatt let everyone know he had had faith in his team long before this point, to the tune of a $5 bet.

That's nice and all, but the Indians are wondering why he didn't make a bigger wager:

Of course, this is just the Indians' Twitter account doing what it does: having fun.

Ultimately, this interaction led to something for the greater good:

"

.@Indians actually you know what if the Indians win the series I would like to donate my $90 to a charity that you support.

@Indians you have my word. Now let's get 5 more wins and make it happen #RallyTogether ✊ pic.twitter.com/oliybNr7bR

There's still a long way to go before this bet can be won, but you have to love something like this.
