The Indians have broken the AL record for consecutive wins at 21

They have also hit more home runs during the streak (38) than they've given up runs (35). And they've outscored their opponents during the streak 139-35 for a Pythagorean record of 20-1.

 

If the Indians are actually a 100 win team over the course of the year, this streak would have about a 1-25,000 chance of occurring. And a 22 game winning streak by a 100 win baseball team would have the same odds as a 72 win NBA team going 82-0, given equal probabilities of winning each game assuming the other team was a .500 team.

 

In other words, (100/162)^22 is approximately equal to (72/82)^82

 

This is history. And it guarantees them nothing in three weeks, they are far more likely to lose in the playoffs/Series than they are to win the whole thing.

 

By the way, this was all done without Andrew Miller...
