Po zadnji uspešni akciji igralcev Chicago Cubs je v delirij padel velik del vetrovnega mesta. Njihovi navijači so na naslov čakali 108 let, tokrat jim je to uspelo na sedmi tekmi proti moštvu Cleveland Indians. Po dodatnem innigu so slavili z 8:7, veselje v Chicagu pa je bilo resnično milo rečeno zelo čustveno.
Klub, ki je bil ustanovljen leta 1876, je prišel do svojega tretjega naslova, prvega po letu 1908. Uspešni so bili še leta 1907. S tretjo lovoriko so izenačili dosežek mestnih tekmecev White Sox, ki so se naslovov veselil v letih 1906, 1917 in 2005.
Takšne so bile reakcije navijačev Cubs:
