The King is paying close attention to October baseball.

After beating the Toronto Raptors in the Eastern Conference finals and leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to their first ever NBA championship, LeBron James wants everyone to know he has the Cleveland Indians back in their upcoming American League Championship series against the Toronto Blue Jays.

"They've played great ball all year and I'll continue to support them for sure," James told Joe Noga of Cleveland.com.

"It's pretty funny that both Cleveland teams are facing Toronto teams for the conference finals back-to-back."

As for Cavaliers supporters waiting for James and company to return to the court, the King said the Indians success has kept the fans focused on their impressive postseason run.

"You've got to be intense. The relaxation period is not as relaxed anymore now that the Indians are playing so well."
