2016 World Series: Cubs vs. Indians (Cubs win Series, 4-3)

[1992casey]

FWIW, the last time the Indians won the Series, Bob Hope was part of the ownership group, and Bill Veeck was the principal owner.

Wowowowowowowowowowow

[Baldkin]

Wow!

[JimH5]

Holy crap!

 

Chapman does not have 4 outs left in him...

[jason21nl]

Maddon completely over managed the game

Maddon completely over managed the game

 

And the series. Way overpitched Chapman. There was absolutely no reason to have him pitch last night.

Exactly I though it was abosolutely stupid he pitched yesterday. He was way too quick to put him in and it literally might have just cost them the title. Now we shall see....

There certainly seems to be a disproportionate number of Cubs fans in the park. Maybe MadThinker88 can shed some light on that. Could it be that there weren't enough season ticket holders to get first dibs on tickets?

Smoltz has been all over this too...man Smoltz is so good in the booth.

Tickets were selling for multiple thousands of dollars. Can't blame people for selling.

This has to be one of the better World Series in recent years. I don't think there was a single dull game.

I'm guessing there was so much money being thrown around for tickets that Cleveland fans cashed in.

Why did Gomes not have the take sign on 2-0? Chapman was gassed, you make him throw a strike. Neither slider was a strike, could have had two on and the inning still going.

[bacon06]

Every time the Indians have scored this game, they have given up runs in the top half. This concerns me.

[jerichoholicninja]

Chapman just hasn't been very sharp this whole postseason. I don't blame Maddon for going with him but I can't say I'm surprised at what happened.

[young guns]

I would like to take this opportunity to talk about LeBron James' shirt. Who is he trying to kid? Cleveland or nowhere, but only after youve gone to Miami to win a couple titles.

I actually predicted this in the 2nd post of this thread.

Maddon doing whatever he can to lose

[1992casey]

Yeah, I question bringing Chapman back out. That doesn't mean I don't like it, though.

Bad move...sometimes you get lucky though.

Nevermind. He did.

 

That was a great inning.

[pitchleague]

Heh, rain delay

[adamb100]

Can't really postpone this one for another day.

[jjkoestler]

What a game. Gotta finish this one up tonight, right? Even if it's late.

[1992casey]

According to the ump, the rain will pass and they'll be able to play.
