The Baltimore Orioles against the Cleveland Indians on May 19, 2019, at Progressive Field in Cleveland. Cleveland’s team became the Guardians in 2022.
Progressive Field opened in 1994 (as Jacobs Field) and sits in downtown Cleveland, with the city skyline rising beyond the outfield. The photos show the view of the field from the stands.
This was the second game of the weekend at the ballpark.

Eliot Ness, famous as the leader of “The Untouchables” who took on Al Capone in Chicago, later served as Cleveland’s Director of Public Safety from 1935 to 1942.
Cleveland still remembers that connection, and the photo shows a framed picture of Ness spotted during a May 2018 visit to the city.

An Ohio historical marker in Cleveland commemorating the city’s claim as the birthplace of rock ‘n’ roll.
The marker remembers the Moondog Coronation Ball, organised by Cleveland DJ Alan Freed in March 1952 and often called the first rock ‘n’ roll concert. Freed is also credited with popularising the term “rock and roll” on the radio.
Cleveland’s role in the music’s history is why the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is located there, on the shore of Lake Erie.
