The Chicago Cubs are going to the World Series.
That sounds unbelievable, doesn’t it? For the first time since 1945, the Cubs have won the pennant. For the first time in 71 years, they will be playing in the World Series. With four more wins, the Cubs could win their first World Series since 1908 (!).
Although I am not even 20 years old yet, it feels like I too have been waiting for 71 years to see the Cubs in the World Series. Since becoming a baseball fan, I’ve seen the Cubs fall short of the ultimate goal more than one would like.
