The Indians win Game 1 of the World Series, 6 – 0 over the Cubs, who are making their first appearance in the Fall Classic since 1945. Corey Kluber pitches 6 scoreless innings during which he strikes out 9, while the Indians score twice off Jon Lester in the bottom of the 1st, on a dribbler by Jose Ramirez that travels barely 20 feet, and when Brandon Guyer is hit by a pitch with the bases loaded. Roberto Perez later homers twice to put the game away.
