It's been a big summer for the city of Cleveland.
The Lake Erie Monsters locked down the Calder Cup, Stipe Miocic became the heavyweight champ and the Cleveland Cavaliers won the NBA title.
Now, the Lake Erie Monsters are shifting toward more Cleveland pride with a shift in their name. They're now the Cleveland Monsters, the team announced via Twitter Tuesday.
