It took 108 years. Â It took the love and support of diehard fans who stuck with the team through thick and thin, come hell or high water. Â It also took a bit of a miracle, as the beloved Cubs were down 3 to 1 to the Cleveland Indians, who haven’t won a World Series since 1948. However, the Chicago MLB franchise overcame all odds by winning back to back games and forcing a Game 7/Winner-Take-All event that was one for the record books.
The win didn’t come easy. During Game 7, Chicago was originally up 6 to 3 in the 8th inning. However, Cleveland went on to score 3 runs and tie the game, forcing the hearts of Cubs fans into their stomachs. Then came a rain delay, which left fans in Chicago and Cleveland on the edge of their seats. Â Eventually, the game resumed and went into a 10th inning, where Chicago scored 2 more runs. By the bottom of the 10th, Cleveland was Strike 1, Strike 2, Strike 3 — and the series was over.
If you somehow missed this incredible game, check out highlights below. Or, wait a few years for a movie that will surely be made to celebrate the day one of the most patient franchises in baseball history became champions!
THANK GOD CHICAGO WON!
I am truly Happy for Cub fans 🙂 !
My babysis lives in Chicago (the North side) along with her family – and except for the winter season, she loves it there. In fact she keeps trying to get me to move there. I have visited a few times during nicer seasons and I really like the city. But, for real, I ain't trying to move anyplace that's colder in the winter than South Central PA….lol But digress.
I called to Congratulate her as soon as i heard the news. She said celebrating has been off the charts.
TGIF!
