May the best drought end.
We're two games into a World Series for the ages, with three weekend games looming at a site that hasn't hosted them in 71 years - Wrigley Field.
The Indians snagged Game 1 and the Cubs even the series Wednesday.
Three more Cubs wins will bring them their first championship in 108 years. The Tribe last topped the baseball world 68 years ago - against the Boston Braves.
At least their ballpark - opened in 1994 - had seen World Series play before this week.
If there's a 3-2 split after the weekend, the final two games will be held at Cleveland Tuesday and Wednesday.
