CLEVELAND — A look at the scoreboard tells one story. Cubs manager Joe Maddon and the players in the clubhouse tell another.
The Cleveland Indians won Game 1 of the World Series 6-0 on Tuesday night, but nobody on the Chicago side felt like it was that lopsided of a loss.
“Listen, I’m not upset whatsoever,” Maddon said. “They pitched really well tonight. Those three runs in the last inning make it look really awful, that six. I mean, [Hector Rondon] just hands a slider and the guy hits a home run. Otherwise it’s tightly contested and who know what happens in the last inning.
