Kiszla: World Series game Cubs waited for 71 years ends in same old heartbreak at Wrigley

CHICAGO—If Chicago is the city of big shoulders, then the Red Line is its life blood, as a commuter train that rattles and shakes through the heart of town. At Addison Station, the northbound Red Line stops where millions of Chicagoan’s hearts have broken for 102 years.

The World Series came to Wrigley Field on Friday.

It was all magic, until they started keeping score. Cleveland beat the Cubs 1-0.

When the ballpark opened it gates, one of the first patrons to enter was Edie Sine, a 67-year-old woman who flew back to her hometown from Seattle with her husband without tickets to Game 3 of the Series, but an unwavering faith she could find two seats for an affordable price.
