MLB Playoffs 2016: TV Schedule, Top Player Comments, Highlights and Stats

With the American League pennant wrapped up, the final stage of the 2016 MLB playoffs is nearly set as the Chicago Cubs and the Los Angeles Dodgers are now interlocked in a 2-2 series.

For the first time since 1997, the Cleveland Indians are in the World Series. Despite several key injuries, the team used timely hitting and a dynamite bullpen to beat the high-powered Toronto Blue Jays in five games. Cleveland has not won baseball's top prize since 1948, which is the longest active drought of any AL team, per Jay Jaffe of Sports Illustrated.
