The 2014 Cleveland Indians season was the 114th season for the franchise. They finished in third place, five games back in the American League Central.

Offseason

Departures

Arrivals

  • On November 1, 2013, Jason Giambi re-signed to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.
  • On November 25, 2013, the Indians signed former Texas Rangers outfielder David Murphy to a two-year contract with a club option for a third year.

Regular season

The Indians opened their season on March 31, a 2-0 win over the Oakland Athletics. Their home opener, which was four days later, sold out in 15 minutes, one of the fastest sellouts in team history.

Notes/records

  • On March 31, umpire Mike Winters became the first umpire to initiate a review under Major League Baseball's new replay system, wanting to confirm that Athletics catcher John Jaso did not block the plate unnecessarily as Michael Brantley attempted to score.
  • On April 10, Danny Salazar became the first pitcher in the modern era (since 1900) to record 10 strikeouts before the end of the fourth inning of a game.
  • On April 24, Corey Kluber became the first Indians pitcher to throw a complete game with 11+ strikeouts, 0 walks, and 0 earned runs since Len Barker's perfect game on May 15, 1981.
  • On May 4, George Kottaras became the first player in franchise history to hit home runs in his first two at-bats as an Indian.
  • On May 14, David Murphy and Lonnie Chisenhall both had 5 hits, the first time two Indians players had done so in the same nine-inning game since 1928.
  • On May 21, the Indians defeated the Detroit Tigers 11-10 in 13 innings on a walk-off balk, the first one in the majors since July 4, 2011, and the first in extra innings since June 16, 2011.
  • Corey Kluber recorded 60 strikeouts in May, the first Indians pitcher with 60+ strikeouts in a month since Dennis Eckersley in September 1976.
  • On June 9, Lonnie Chisenhall became the first player to go 5-5 with 3 HR and 9 RBI since MLB began tracking RBI in 1920. The 9 RBI tied a franchise record, also accomplished by Chris James in 1991.
  • On September 26, the Indians set a major league record for strikeouts by pitchers with 1,431, breaking the mark set by the 2013 Detroit Tigers. They ended the season with 1,450.
  • On November 12, Corey Kluber became the 4th Indians pitcher to win the American League Cy Young Award.
