So there will be a game 7. Who you got?

What a great ending to a great game to end one of the best baseball season I have ever seen . Congrats to the Cubs and all their loyal fans.
Hope the Yankees take down the defending Champs in 2017!
 
As an Indians fan, that game was a rollercoaster of emotions. Even though I didn't like the outcome, that was one of the best games (of any sport) I've ever seen!
 
As you'd expect big ratings for game 7. Sports Business Journal rating of 25.2 with a 40 share. The Cubs being in contention has been a big boon for Fox. I believe earlier in the playoffs FS1 beat ESPN in the ratings for a full week, which was the first time ever.

Maddon moves:
In what order do you dissaprove?
Pitching Chapman in a well in hand game 6
Taking out Hendricks with two outs
Taking out Lester with two outs
Bunting Baez with two strikes

My tribute to Chapman:
Unable to rely on his fastball anymore he retired the side in the ninth inning by using his slider.

They were all terrible moves and could've all been Series altering. Terry Francona is one of the best managers I've ever seen hands down (im 30), especially in the playoffs. Maddon was bailed out by his team big time.

Notice that Cleveland's last batter was Michael Martinez. Martinez was on the Phillies; he couldn't hit a lick. Did Francona have nobody else? Maybe Francona shouldn't have inserted Martinez as a defensive replacement in a game that the Indians weren't leading.

This.
Cubs and their fans deserve this Championship more than anyone else.
Yankees have a good group of young players in Castro, Sanchez, Didi, etc.
Along with Pitchers Tanaka and Betrances look for the Yankees to rebound in 2017.

I despise the Cubs, hate Bill Murray, and hope the Indians wipe them out tonight and bring another winter of misery to that city and its insufferable fanbase!!
I hope you had a really bad day. Anger to a team or town is just dumb.
Cubs Win, Cubs Win, Cubs Win!
