This game is an absolute classic. If you ever forgot why you enjoyed watching baseball, this game will remind you!

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

If the Cubs lose it will be because they could not overcome their manager.

The Cubs had a chance getting Heyward to third on a throwing error while he stole second,
but a great play behind second by Lindor retires the side. It's six all going to the bottom of the ninth!

Not a lot of at-bats late in the season.  I think those are all pinch-hits (I could be wrong).  Mrs. Liberty says he's the Third Catcher.

He is. But he was in the game already tonight. He stepped in when Ross came out of the game.

For anyone who missed it, here are my personal notes for the tenth inning . . .

TENTH. Cubs----Schwarber: ball one up and away; hard smash to the right, base hit!!!! Cubs have the leadoff man aboard!!!
Albert Almora, Jr. runs for Schwarber.

Bryant: ball one misses outside; strike fouled straight back; fought it off on the hands, fouled it back, 1-2 to Bryant; ball two
up and away; throw to first, Almora back; high fly to deep center, Davis is back to the wall to get it, Almora tags and takes
second!!!

Rizzo: they're going to put him on to pitch to Zobrist. First and second, one out.

Zobrist: ball one way upstairs; strike one on the ceiling of the zone; strike two hits the floor of the zone; fouls one off to the left
on the ground and off the railing; grounded to the left side, base hit to left, going for extra bases, Almora on his horses and
scores the tiebreaking run!!!!!!!!! Rizzo to third, Zobrist to second, one out!!!

Russell: they'll put him on to load ducks on the pond for Montero.

Montero: ball one high; fouled off the plate, strike one; base hit! Rizzo scores!! 8-6 Chicago!!!!!!

Trevor Bauer relieved Bryan Shaw, p, Indians

Heyward: strike one fouled off the plate; strike two swinging on a terrible bouncing pitch; fouled high off left; strikes out on a
bouncer couldn't check his swing, two out!!! Ducks still on the pond.

Baez: ball one way inside; strike one swinging through a fastball; swinging through a hard fastball, 1-2 to him with ducks on the
pond and two out; ball two in the dirt; high fly to center, Davis has it, Bauer limits the damage but it's 8-6 CUbs going to the
bottom of the tenth!!!!

Indians---Carl Edwards Jr. relieved Chapman.

Napoli: strike; ball high; fouled out of play right side, strike two; ball two high; struck his ass out!!!!

Ramirez: strike one hits the floor; strike two lined foul down the right field line; ball one, curve ball misses outside; ball two low and
away; grounder to Russell, one out from the Promised Land!!!

Guyer: ball one, breaking ball outside; ball two low; ball three low and outside; strike one hits the floor; ball four low, and Rajai Davis
is the tying run coming to the plate!!!

Davis: ball one low, Guyer to second untouched; line drive, base hit to center field, in comes Guyer and it's a one-run game again!!!

Mike Montgomery relieved Carl Edwards, Jr., p, Cubs.

Martinez: strike called, curve ball hits the zone; grounder to third, tough play for Bryant, he gets the out and the CHICAGO CUBS ARE
WORLD CHAMPIONS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 108 YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CLEVELAND — As the clubhouse cleared out late Tuesday night, after the Chicago Cubs had forced Game 7 of this rollicking World Series with the Cleveland Indians, Ben Zobrist was asked if he had dreamed of a chance like this.

Zobrist is 35 and has played 11 seasons in the major leagues. He had won and lost a World Series before joining the Cubs as a free agent in the off-season. As his mind flashed back to his childhood, he could not pretend that he expected any of it.

“No,” Zobrist said, laughing softly. “I wasn’t that guy. I mean, I never even thought about playing professionally. I didn’t think that was a possibility for a little kid from Illinois. I just wanted to play the game and win. I was competitive, but I never thought that I would be in a situation like this.”

Yet how many other little kids from Illinois did? Thousands, millions? How many have wondered, over the last 108 years, what it might be like to stand in the batter’s box in Game 7 of the World Series, with the score tied in the 10th inning, and drive in the winning run for the Cubs?

Early Thursday morning at Progressive Field, Zobrist lived it. His one-out, opposite-field double off Bryan Shaw stayed fair down the third base line, driving home Albert Almora Jr. to put the Cubs ahead for good in an 8-7 victory. Zobrist was named the most valuable player of the Series...

Well it was a long time coming for the Cubs.  I thought for sure that Maddon was going to blow it.  That was his M.O. with the Rays.  Congrats to all of the Cubs fans.
