Cubs in World Series for First Time in 71 Years

October 22, 2016

The Chicago Cubs are going to their first World Series since 1945 thanks to Saturday's 5-0 National League Championship Series-clinching triumph over the Los Angeles Dodgers.  Hosting the game at Wrigley Field, the Cubs attacked L.A. ace Clayton Kershaw early and often, then held onto the lead behind the brilliant pitching of right-hander Kyle Hendricks.  Cubs left-hander Jon Lester and second baseman Javier Baez were named co-MVPs.

 

The Cubs, just four years removed from a 96-loss season, will next face the American League Champions Cleveland Indians in the World Series next week as they seek their first world championship since 1908.
