    They had no position players left on the bench. Everyone had been used.

    They were down to their last role player. Nobody was left. Should have never taken Crisp out of the game. I didn't understand it at the time and really didn't understand it when Martinez was hitting.

    How did the Cubs have so many fans at this game?

    They pulled crisp for a possible sac fly because Martinez has a better arm. Sac fly never happened. Unreal

    Great game but not the best world series ever. That would go to the Yankees vs Arizona.

    Unfreaking real, as if the manager knows there the ball will go, you take a much better player out for that?

    Did you see Maddon pull Hendricks when hendricks was DOMINATING, and Lester gave up 2

    Then Lester got comfy and was DOMINATING, so Maddon pulled him and put in Chapman and He gave up 3

    Then Chapman settled in and got comfortable so Maddon pulled him and put in Edwards Jr and he gave up a run

    Finally, they brought in a bullpen catcher to close the game out

    For sure. But nobody will talk about it, or even remember it because they won and broke the curse

    Horrible move. Crisp deserved taking the last swing in this game.

    The intentional walks were pathetic as well. Francona usually is money but he fukked up tonight.

    It's funny when they say "You've waited 108 years." I'm pretty sure no one actually waited 108 years.

    Back To The Future 2 predicted the Chicago Cubs to win the World Series a year too early: Also, Biff owning casinos and being mayor is similar to Trump owning casinos and running for president.

    Not Francona's best decision.

    Maddon had a pretty bad night, it's funny he comes out on top. BUT, at the same time you have to give him props for the Cubs hitters always turning things around after slumps.

    Do you reckon Cleveland could have ended the series earlier had they gone into playoffs with the 5 man rotation. Going with 3 starters was a lot to ask.

    Not only missing 2 key starters but also missing their best outfielder Mike Brantley. Indians will be back. but it's so hard to win a title.

    So many guys in this thread don't even understand baseball, and are arguing about what the managers should have done.

    Classic stuff, gentlemen.

    See you next year.
