CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Indians are winning and people are paying attention.

They're following along on TV and on the radio and they're even starting to scoop up tickets to watch in person. A scorching month of baseball tends to do that.

Tribe telecasts are averaging a 5.3 household rating on SportsTime Ohio this season. That's an increase of 31 percent over last year through 75 games.

Monday's meeting between the Indians and Braves drew a 9.52 household rating, the highest for a non-simulcast game on STO since July 9, 2014. The broadcasts have averaged a 7.1 rating during the club's 10-game winning streak.

The Indians' TV ratings for the month of June are up about 74 percent over the ratings from June 2015. All TV ratings, obtained by cleveland.com from SportsTime Ohio, are recorded by Nielsen.

In mid-July last season, the Indians were averaging a 4.21 rating on SportsTime Ohio. They finished with a 3.93 rating. They averaged a 6.17 local rating in 2014.

A source also told cleveland.com that the team's radio broadcast ratings are up about 25 percent over last year.

On the other end of the spectrum, the Indians rank last in the majors in attendance. They have averaged 16,656 fans per game for 35 home affairs. They have not finished better than 28th in the league since 2011.

That could change, however. The Indians are projecting at least four crowds of 30,000 or more for next week's seven-game homestand against the Tigers and Yankees. The team sold nearly 3,000 tickets on Monday alone for the club's July 4 tilt with the Tigers at Progressive Field.

The team has drawn better for its recent weekend games. A three-game set against the White Sox from June 17-19 attracted more than 84,000 to the ballpark.

The Indians have racked up a 19-6 record in June. They sit in first place in the American League Central, five games ahead of Kansas City.
