World Series Game 5 Indians/Cubs
Play: Indians +1.5
Rating: 8*
The Cleveland Indians can claim their first World Series title since 1948 with another victory at Wrigley Field Sunday night. They've dominated the Cubs so far in this series, and I'm well happy to take the extra run on the visitors at this price.
Cleveland reached Jon Lester for three runs in 5 2/3 innings in the series opener, and I can see Lester struggle with Cleveland's base running here as he rarely (if ever) throws to first base. Cleveland's Trevor Bauer lasted just 3 2/3 innings while allowing two runs and six hits in a Game 2 loss Wednesday, but he'll be backed up by a well rested bullpen and we can note that Indians are 7-2 in Bauers last nine starts vs. a team with a winning record.
