Cubbies 3-1 in the bottom 4th. Their bats are really lighting up. Still at bat......

Ouch! If the Cubs lose the series, I hope it's not at home....

Chances are slim to none that the Cubs can win the series, but that's why they play the games.... Go Cubs!

Cubs still have a good chance of winning game 6 with Arrieta pitching although the odds were about the same for Kershaw winning game 6 of the NLCS and we know how that turned out.

Before the series started I figured it would come down to game 7.

Kind of agree Bruce. To me the question comes down to if it comes to game 7 then the Cubs will be facing Kluber for the 3 time in 7 games. How much difference will that make and will the Cub hitters be able to make adjustments and how far can Kluber go?

I think the Indians will be highly favored with Kluber on the mound if game 7 happens.

This is the 65th time the World Series has stood at 3-2, and of the previous 64, the team with the lead has gone on to win it all in 43 instances (67.2 percent). In the four times the Cubs have trailed, 3-2, in a best-of-seven series, they've lost each series and only won Game 6 once -- in the 1945 World Series against the Tigers. Detroit won Game 7 in what was the last Fall Classic played at Wrigley Field before this year.

I'm watching and hoping history happens. Also hoping for a good clean game, no errors, no controversial calls, no squib hits.
