The 2012 Cleveland Indians season was the 112th season for the franchise. The team attempted (but failed) to improve on its 2011 campaign in which was 80–82 and finished second in the American League Central. The team was also looking to return to the playoffs for the first time since 2007. The team played all of its home games at Progressive Field, which will be in its 19th season.
The Indians were in playoff contention for much of the first four months of the season. The team had a record of 44–41 at the All Star Break, and were just a few games back in both the AL Central and Wild Card races. However, the team struggled through the second half, going just 24–53 after the break, for a final record of 68–94, placing 4th in the division.
This marked the third and final season under the leadership of manager Manny Acta. Acta was fired on September 27 with six games remaining. Bench coach and former Indians' catcher Sandy Alomar Jr. was named the interim manager for the team's final six games.
