DeKALB | Art major Erik Carillo believes that superstitions influence the Cubs’ playoff performance, so he wears Cubs gear every game day.
For baseball players and sports fanatics, superstitions play a big role in athlete performance. The last World Series win for the Cubs was 108 years ago in 1908.
The Chicago Cubs are having success in this year’s postseason. After their win in Los Angeles on Wednesday night, the Cubs’ magic number for a World Series victory is six wins.
“I want to say World Series, but I don’t want to jinx them,” said freshman pitcher William Anderson.
