In the final game of the season at Wrigley, the Cubs prevailed 3-2 over the Indians, holding off several Cleveland challenges in the late innings. It was the Cubs' first World Series win at Wrigley Field since Game 6 of the 1945 World Series. They lost that World Series to the Detroit Tigers in seven games.
