The Cleveland Indians lost their series to the Boston Red Sox earlier this week, while the New York Yankees had their way with the Baltimore Orioles in a four-game sweep. Many gave the advantage to the Yankees on Thursday night, especially with their vaunted opener, but that...wasn't the case.

The Indians opened up the game with a seven-run first inning, thanks to a grand slam from Jose Ramirez, a solo homer from Jason Kipnis, and a two-run bomb from Roberto Perez.

As if that already didn't sting enough for Yankees fans, the Indians' official Twitter account took a swing at them when they weren't even looking.

Just savage from Cleveland.

In case you were wondering, yes, the Indians social media team used the Yankees' "savages in the box" slogan that was made famous after manager Aaron Boone's tirade towards a home plate umpire.

The Yankees didn't even get the opportunity to have a rebuttal, as they were decimated from beginning to end by the Indians, losing 19-5 in a contest in which they allowed 24 hits.

See, even they were getting bored after nine starters had multiple hits while accumulating a total of seven homers as a team on Thursday.

Oh, and the Indians also own the two-highest scoring performances in new Yankee Stadium history.

Cleveland Indians: Straight Savages.
