So are the Cubs this bad or are the Indians this good? I've watched the last two games and I can't figure it out.. Its the Cubs, they swing at everything and lackey was trash. I couldn't believe it.. They were swinging at EVERYTHING.. No pitch went wasted. I was trying to figure out how they made it this far playing like that.

Man I really don't want those damn Indians to win. I really hope the Cubs can get it done. My hopes are not high though. Sorry they just are not high enough to believe. But I'd love to see. I am just tired of everyone slobbing on Andrew Miller's Knob. Five years ago he was the guy who got traded for Miggy in Detroit, And now I'm seeing people say that he is better than Miggy Because he has had one good year. It's annoying

I don't think the Cubs are gonna lay down easily, I think it all comes down to Bauer if he plays well we could be World Series Champions tonight. If he plays like he played in game 2 well... see you Tuesday. #RallyToghther

I hope the Cubbies pull out a win next game and make this a series. Both teams deserve the World Series title after so long for both, but I would hate for their season to end so sour.

It's annoying Andrew Miller has been one of the best relievers in MLB since 2013. If the Mets had signed him in the 2014 offseason, he wouldve slammed the door shut on the Royals and they wouldve won the World Series.

I have got no dog in this fight, but Cubs are doing well tonight. Cleveland had burned through some pitchers, which makes you think about a game 6, and how that could be pitched.

Tomlin can win this for us, I actually believe in the combo Tomlin. Plus I also believe in the combo of Tomlin/Miller/Allen and home field always helps. God I hope Karma knows that all those 3-1 Warrior jokes weren't serious. #RallyToghther

Last night was not an easy grind, but they did it.
I knew Bryant hit something for at least extra bases. That thing just barely cleared the basket.
I was worried that leadoff double by Santana would lead to a run. Good job pitching out of that.
The Jose Ramirez homer came from nowhere. Lester was so sharp and then boom. Unbelievable. Then I was worried. It's amazing how the team that scored three runs felt like a monumental accomplishment even though they have scored like crazy.
That Heyward catch in foul territory. Wow.
I know it's an elimination game and you have to go all out. Still, I was very worried about Joe bringing in Chapman in the 7th. He hasn't done well before the 9th. It felt like so many times last night that game could've been tied. I did a lot of yelling at my TV.
One more win ties the series. Two more wins and the one wish I've ever wanted in life will be granted.
It all starts Tuesday and Jake better be at his best.

Arrietta better be on his A game or the season is over very melodramatically.

I got Indians at Progressive against Arrietta, we beat him once at Wrigley I think we've got it in hand. But I wouldn't say it's over 100% closer to 95%, but if the Cubs show up at Progressive with the drive their offense showed in games 2 and 5 we could be in for a fight. However like I said before I trust Tomlin, if he can pitch for 6 or 7 and do well then we can bring in Andrew Miller for the 7/8 and end 'em will Cody Allen.

Arrieta also beat the Tribe at Progressive in Game 2 with the longest no-hit bid in a World Series game since Jerry Koosman in 1969.
I'll give the Cubs the edge here tonight. If there is a tomorrow night, it's up for grabs.

If there is a tomorrow night, it's up for grabs. That's true, I still think the Tribe get it done tonight probably in a walk off/1 run win, close game fashion.

Grand Slams in the WS are fun. Bill Mazeroski agrees. Well, walk off home runs anyways.
