Cub closer Aroldis Chapman single-handedly put the World Series hopes for his team on his back last night and held back the surging Cleveland Indians by a score of 3-2. With this latest postseason win, the 2016 World Series is thrown into a dramatic Game 7 situation.
At stake is one Major League Baseball's oldest curse, as the Chicago Cubs, organized in 1876, last captured World Series honors in 1908, after the team had also won the series the previous year.
Meanwhile, in Cleveland, the Indians have experienced a drought of their own. Since 1948, where Indian legend hurler Bob Feller won World Series standout honors, the tribe has remained title-less.
