Major League Baseball’s World Series begins Tuesday night. The Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians will play Game One of the series in Cleveland, Ohio. It has been more than 60 years since either team won the championship of North American baseball. Chicago Cubs fans have been celebrating since Chicago defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers Saturday night to win the National League. It is the first World Series berth for the Cubs since 1945. The last time Chicago won the World Series was in 1908. Last Wednesday, the Cleveland Indians defeated the Toronto Blue Jays to win the American League championship. It is Cleveland’s first American League title since 1997. The last time the Indians won the World Series was in 1948. The good news for baseball fans? One side has to win. One famous Cubs fan is presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
