Jason Kipnis Injury: Updates on Indians Star's Ankle and Return

It's OK to say it out loud now, Chicago.

He spied apparent strangers stopping to hug on the street, construction workers cheering as the buses passed by, and, at each cemetery the newly crowned World Series champions passed that October 2004 morning, Red Sox pennants had been draped on gravestones.

If the Cubs do win the World Series, they'll do what Kiki Cuyler, Gabby Hartnett, Billy Herman, Rogers Hornsby and Hack Wilson never did. Cleveland's pitching staff followed that by whittling Toronto's big bats down to toothpicks in the AL Championship Series. And now we know just how insane the market for Cubs' World Series tickets could get. Triple it, and you've got the Cubs. Until this year, when the Cavaliers won the National Basketball Association championship, it had been more than half a century since Cleveland won a title in any major sport.

Some Cubs' fans have waited longer than others to see the Cubs win it all.

Ticket brokers were being flooded with calls from fans looking for tickets and, as of Monday, they were willing to pay as much as $12,000, said Dan Makras of Classic Tickets in Chicago. In comparison, only about 2 percent of the sales to Game 3 at Wrigley are coming from Ohio. A scout who watched Schwarber said he took very good swings and slid into second on his double without issue. "Maybe when Hazleton beat West Hazleton in football, but otherwise?"

Cavaliers players have been spotted during the postseason showing their support for the Indians on social media and at Progressive Field.

Yes, it does. And yet - and this can't be overstated - 107-year-old beggars can't be choosers.

The bubble of fun was just starting.

"But this", he said with a sweep of his arm toward the still-rocking grandstand, "is finally the year". "It's not just Chicago, It's not just IL".

Warren Buffett responds to Donald Trump's tax comments
Buffett added that he pays so much in income tax, that his 2015 tax total amounts to 75% of Trump's total fortune . It's not as if Trump has proposed to trim any of the real estate-friendly provisions that help him avoid taxes.

"I don't know what the risk is for the reward, but go for it", Coghlan said. 68 years for Cleveland fans is a lifetime. "The ultimate goal is still out in front of us".

Because if absence makes the heart grow fonder and patience is a virtue, we have the most virtuous fans with the fondest hearts in our country with a rooting interest in this year's World Series! They appeared in 1945, but last won in 1908. "We have one more task to do".

"All night and all day", he said.

"That just speaks to how special of a bat he is - and how hard he worked these past six months to put himself in the position to be ready to play in the World Series".

When Epstein came to Wrigley five years ago and began piecing together the team that would bring a World Series back to the North Side, he heard a lot of the echoes he did in Boston.

Some cities debate which of their teams was the greatest in franchise history.

These days - and in this case, the "days" stretch back decades - no baseball fans have it worse than the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians.

Kris Bryant, who has been steady all throughout the postseason, drove in the game's first run when he singled home Dexter Fowler. "At his funeral service the priest, who is also a fan of the Cubs, mentioned to everyone what a huge Cubs fan my dad was".

Fathers, grandparents and anyone else who died before the Cubs made it to the World Series again were remembered late on Saturday night.
