CLEVELAND — As the Cleveland Guardians continue their MLB Postseason journey, the team has released an electric hype video getting fans ready for the American League Championship Series (ALCS) against the New York Yankees. 

The Guardians released the full video on X, formerly known as Twitter, with the caption: "We didn't get here by accident, and we don't plan on stopping. 

The video begins by showing the most memorable moment from the ALDS when Lane Thomas hit a grand slam off of Detroit Tigers ace Tariuk Skubal. Ultimately, that homerun pushed the Guardians over the Tigers, resulting in a trip to the Bronx for the ALCS.

"Champion isn't just a title. It's a mindset. It's the relentless pursuit of excellence. It's the passion that fuels every move. It's the drive that sets us apart. In Cleveland, we aren't here for the attention. We are here for the victory."

The video continues to show some of the biggest highlights from the ALDS called by iconic radio play-by-play announcer Tom Hamilton. 

"We're ready to take it all. Welcome to the American League Championship Series." 

The video ends with the words "Stand for the Land" on the screen. 

The full video can be watched below: 

The No. 2 Cleveland Guardians open the ALCS tonight on the road against the No. 1 New York Yankees. The first pitch for Game 1 is set for 7:38 p.m. at Yankees stadium.
