The 1998 Cleveland Indians season was the franchise's 98th season. The Indians hoped to improve upon their American League pennant-winning season of 1997, but succumbed to the New York Yankees in the ALCS in six games. The Indians would lead the AL Central wire-to-wire in 1998, becoming the first team in franchise history (and as of 2017, the only team in franchise history) to do so. {{Infobox MLB yearly | name = Cleveland Indians | season = 1998 | misc =AL Central Champions | logo = | current league = American League | y1 = 1901 | division = Central Division | y2 = 1994 | Uniform logo = | ballpark = Jacobs Field | y4 = 1994 | city = Cleveland, Ohio | y5 = 1901 | owners =Richard Jacobs | general managers =John Hart | managers = Mike Hargrove | television = WUAB Jack Corrigan, Mike Hegan FSN Ohio John Sanders, Rick Manning | radio = WKNR (1220 AM) Tom Hamilton, Dave Nelson, Matt Underwood, Mike Hegan |}}Offseason- November 12, 1997: Paul Assenmacher was signed as a Free Agent with the Cleveland Indians.[1]
