Curse of Rocky Colavito : ウィキペディア英語版 | Curse of Rocky Colavito
The Curse of Rocky Colavito is a phenomenon that supposedly prevents the Cleveland Indians baseball team from winning, be it the World Series, the American League pennant, reaching postseason play, or even getting into a pennant race. Its origin is traced back to the unpopular trade of right fielder Rocky Colavito for Harvey Kuenn in 1960. ==Origins==
The 1960 trade between the Detroit Tigers and Cleveland Indians sent "The Rock", the home run champion of 1959 to the Tigers for Harvey Kuenn, batting champion of 1959. It was a unique trade between a home run champion, 42 home runs in '59, and a hitting champion, .353 batting average in '59. Fans in Cleveland were outraged by the betrayal of their GM Frank "Trader" Lane. In only 2 years at the Indians, Lane had taken a mostly successful 40-man roster and had traded away every single player he had inherited. Fans in Detroit were mostly happy about the trade.
