"The game without a clock is about to begin a World Series that offers fans the time of their lives. And when it's all said and done, everybody associated with the winning team will have waited a lifetime for that thrill. The Cubs and the Indians had a combined championship drought of 176 years, a combined pennant drought of 89 years. So to see them on this stage tonight at Progressive Field, to know what this advancement means to their respective fan bases and know the context of this clash in the sport's long history is to appreciate what a special spectacle it is.
It's about time."
Heavy wait title: Cubs-Indians G1 tonight! | MLB.com
I'm a Yankees fan and a fan of American League Baseball so I'm slanted a little toward Cleveland.
These are the two most well like managers in baseball both by players and fans. Francona managed to break the Curse of the Bambino with the Red Sox. Madden led the Cubs to the best record in baseball 2016 and could be the one to break the curse of The Goat.
The nostalgia and history for this series is phenomenal. I'm torn on who to support but as a fan of baseball I am excited to see what will be a very entertaining series.
