CLEVELAND - It’s a tough time to be an Indians fan, so the Tribe faithful are finding new ways to maintain sanity and gain some sense of pleasure.

After the Indians’ 11th straight loss, #IndiansSexActs has popped up as a trending topic in Cleveland. Another loss Wednesday and the team will tie a franchise record for most consecutive losses dating back to 1931.
Fans have gotten creative as they vent their frustration with the team through subtle (and not-so-subtle) innuendos based on past and present players.
