With Eddie Robinson, the last living member from the ‘48 title team in attendance, and LeBron James and the NBA champion Cavaliers coming over from Quicken Loans Arena after they beat Houston, Cleveland was poised to have a night to remember like the one just 134 days ago in June when the Cavs ended the city’s 52-year championship dry spell. On an unseasonably warm November day, fans came hoping to witness the first championship win at home by a Cleveland team since the Browns took the NFL title in 1964 by shutting out the Baltimore Colts. The right-hander, who was so effective in Game 3 at Wrigley Field, pitched on short rest for the second time in his career but wasn’t the problem as much as his location.Įverything seemed to be lined up for a massive downtown street party in Cleveland, which has waited 68 years between World Series titles. They hammered Josh Tomlin, who couldn’t get out of the third inning and didn’t get any help from his outfield in the first. The Cubbies, shut out twice earlier in this Series, brought their clubs to Cleveland. The NL champions, who also got a two-run homer from Anthony Rizzo, are trying to become the seventh team to rally from 3-1 deficit and first to do in on the road since Willie Stargell and the Pittsburgh Pirates came back against Baltimore in 1979.Ĭubs Manager Joe Maddon didn’t take any chances despite a comfortable late lead, using atomic-armed Aroldis Chapman for one out in the seventh, the eighth and one batter in the ninth. Indians ace Corey Kluber, dominant while winning Games 1 and 4, starts again on short rest tonight at home against big league ERA leader Kyle Hendricks. Kris Bryant homered to spark a three-run first inning, Russell hit the first slam in the Series in 11 years and Jake Arrieta worked into the sixth as the Cubs, who came to Progressive Field one win from elimination, are now one victory from their first championship since 1908. The biggest, most nerve-wracking day yet.įor one city, hysteria. They’re frothing.Īddison Russell hit a grand slam and tied a World Series record with six RBI, and Chicago took advantage of a huge early misplay in Cleveland’s outfield as the Cubs throttled the Indians, 9-3, on Tuesday night in Game 6 to push this tense tug-of-war between baseball’s two longest title drought holders to the limit.
