It's only fitting that this historic World Series between the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians come down to a Game 7. Both fanbases have waited so long for their next title, what's one more day?
Thanks to a Cleveland fielding miscue and some tater power from the Chicago offense, the Cubs routed the Indians, 9-3, in Game 6, forcing a decisive Game 7 tonight in Cleveland.
Imagine it. The Cubs, looking for their first World Series victory since 1908. The Indians, looking for their first title since 1948. The two franchises with the longest droughts in baseball -- after 162 games and three rounds of tense postseason baseball -- meet tonight in Cleveland, with just one game left to determine who will be the baseball champions of the universe for 2016.
