11-2-16! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY CUBS FANS! THE GREATEST GAME EVER PLAYED WAS ON A WEDNESDAY IN CLEVELAND 10 YEARS AGO TODAY! THE CHICAGO CUBS ARE WORLD SERIES CHAMPS! 8-7 IN 10! #Cubs#WorldSeriesChampions#FlyThew#GoCubsGo
It was #OTD in 2016 that the #Cubs beat the Cleveland Indians 5-1 in Game 2 of the World Series. Jake Arrieta had a no hitter going into the 6th inning. He would go 5 2/3 innings, give up 1 run, and strikeout 6. Anthony Rizzo was 1-3 with a double, 2 walks, and an RBI, Ben Zobrist was 2-4 with a triple and an RBI, and Kyle Schwarber was 2-4 with 2 RBI! Aroldis Chapman got the final 4 outs as the Cubs evened up the series at 1 game a piece. It was the Cubs first World Series win since Game 6 in 1945!
Waking up in Italy to watch highlights of Game 3. How’d that 5th inning by the Brewers. Absolutely brutal. Incredible. So Cubs fans are we hating or loving this Brewers performance?
It was #OTD in 2016 that the #Cubs beat the Dodgers 5-0 in NLCS Game 6 to win the NL pennant for the first time since 1945. Kyle Hendricks pitched 7 1/3 innings and gave up 2 hits. Aroldis Chapman pitched an inning and a third. 2 of the Dodgers bases runners were wiped out with double plays, 1 was picked off. Hendricks and Chapman faced the minimum, 27 batters. Anthony Rizzo and Willson Contreras homered for the Cubs and Kris Bryant and Dexter Fowler added RBI singles.
