The Cubs and Indians square off in the 112th World Series that gets underway Tuesday night (7:08pm CDT) in Cleveland.
This has a chance of being an excellent World Series between the Cubs and Indians, two teams with a lot of talent, excellent managers and long, storied histories with devoted fan bases.
One of the two longest droughts in professional sports will soon come to an end. The Cubs are in the World Series for the first time since 1945 and are looking for the franchise’s first championship since 1908. The Indians played in two Fall Classics in the 90’s (1995, 1997) but have not won a championship since 1948.
