CLEVELAND, Ohio – For the first time in 52 years, Cleveland has a chance to win a sports championship at home.
On Tuesday, the Cleveland Indians will take on the Chicago Cubs at Progressive Field in Game 6 of the World Series, giving the team the opportunity to bring the city its first home-won championship since the Browns defeated the Baltimore Colts in the Super Bowl in 1964. The Indians, who will play Game 7 in Cleveland on Wednesday if necessary, have not won a championship at home since 1920.
For a city that has rallied behind the scrappy Indians team, expect crowds downtown this week.
