NBC Sports recently featured an article on the Cleveland Indians' innovative use of social media.

NBC's Craig Calcaterra writes, "Not that I'll name any names, but a lot of other clubs could take a hint. Some ballparks won't let you bring an iPad in. Others have media relations people who seek out bloggers and try to intimidate them when they write negative stuff. Get a clue fellas."

Last year, the team launched its ground-breaking Social Media Deck, setting aside a portion of the bleachers specifically for heavy social media users. This year, the Tribe upgraded the social-media experience with the Indians Social Suite. The new space moves from left field to an actual suite, giving bloggers and Tweeps a fine new home.

The Indians also released a comprehensive list of the team's active Twitter accounts. Additionally, followers of the team's social media accounts, including their Facebook page and their Twitter feed, can purchase discounted game tickets.
