Cubs Rewind: Never Quit

The Cubs never quit and forced a Game 6 of The World Series with a 3-2 win at Wrigley Field in Game 5

After dropping two straight to the Indians at Wrigley Field, the Cubs faced elimination in Game 5 of The World Series and the possibility of the Indians celebrating a championship on the field. With the theme from Rocky supplying the pre-game soundtrack in the clubhouse, it was up to Jon Lester to keep the Cubs flying.

The Indians jumped out to a 1-0 lead on a solo home run by Jose Ramirez in the second inning.
