    I'd rather someone stick a red arrow on my ballpark than stick two hulking, flashing monstrosities in left and right field, dwarfing everything that once made the place special.

    Well, what do we think? I say Kluber pitches into the fifth, Miller gets them into late innings, Indians win 3-2.

    Cubs 4, Indians 2.

    Chapman gives up a run in the 9th and Maddon is hanged in effigy in Chicago.

    The question isn't who wins Game 7, it's which city is more in shambles in the aftermath, no matter the outcome. Win or lose, I think Chicago is going to have a night to forget.

    I have explained this: Corporate lawyers and consultants in Wrigleyville and Wicker Park are not the ones committing violence in Chicago. It will be fine. We've had 10 opportunities to practice since 1991.

    I'd love to see Kluber win just to see a starter go 3-0 in the WS; that used to be the holy grail; but then they went to the 4 man rotation and the ace only went Gm 1 & 5 (unless you're MadBum, then you go in 7 too (RJ did that too)). That hasn't been done since what, Gibson in '67?

    I'll have to double check on this, but I believe the game is being broadcast to all parts of the city.

    Cubs are better overall but Cleveland is plenty good. Kluber is better overall but Hendricks is plenty good.

    It is one baseball game and if anyone has any advantage it is negligible. Flip a coin.
