Joe Maddon on Cubs return to Cleveland: It will be fun to walk those steps

On Tuesday night, the Cubs will return to Cleveland for the first time since November 2, 2016, the night a 108-year-old curse fell in extra innings and the Cubs won the World Series. The Cubs and the Indians will also be meeting in a regular season game for the first time since Game 7 of the World Series.

"It's going to be interesting of course," manager Joe Maddon said. "Although, part of that whole series is the fact people don't even realize we were down three games to one going back to Cleveland. So you're down, you get it to 3-2 and win that fifth game and you have to win two games on the road in a ballpark where [the Indians] play really, really well.
