And now an error at 2nd base... Cubs under pressure! Hendricks with runners on 1st and 2nd...

Cubs chase Kluber out of the game, 5-1 Cubs at the halfway point.

Now Hendricks walks the first Indians batter and he's out of the game. Massive innings for Cleveland.

Lester with one of the ugliest pitches I've ever seen, bounces about 5 feet from the plate and takes Ross's head off, two runs score. 5-3 end of 5.

Poor throw skips away from Kipnis, Hayward to third, one out. Then a bonehead call to bunt sees Baez strike out, then a wonder play from Lindor guns down Fowler. High drama!

Extra innings but the heart of the Cubs order due up.

Rain delay of fifteen minutes as the clock slips past midnight in Cleveland. Top of 10th and Zobrist doubles in the goal ahead run, then Montero knocks in an insurance run. Surely the Cubs have done enough? up steps the hitless Heyward with bases loaded. He strikes out, Baez flies out, innings over.

Cubs three outs away from ending 108 years of hurt.

Napoli strikes out. Russell guns down Ramirez. Guyer walks. Tying run Rajai Davis at the plate. Guyer steals second. Davis singles, Guyer scores, 8-7. Sweet Jesus! Grounder to third Bryant to Rizzo, ballgame! CUBS ARE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS 2016!

As an Indians fan I know I ought to be gutted, but as it's the Cubs (bless 'em) I kind of don't mind.

Fell asleep at 5-1, woke up at 6-6, doh! Watched the exra inning though! Fantastic stuff and delighted that the Cubs finally prevailed. A World Series that really delivered.

Am now awiting the ESPN 30 for 30 doc and then the Hollywood movie.

Fitting end to what's been a great World Series, with the best team over the regular season winning it, for me. I went to bed at around 2am with the Cubs 5-1 up, thinking they'd broken the game's back. Shame I missed the greater part of an epic, but on a school night and all...
