CLEVELAND - Greetings from Progressive Field, where the Indians will play host to the Cubs in the 112th World Series.
Considering the epic droughts for both franchises, the 2016 World Series is one of the most anticipated Fall Classics in the history of America's Pastime.
The Cubs, who haven’t won the Series since 1908, are considered slight favorites over a Cleveland franchise that hasn’t won it all since 1948.
Heading into Game 1 Tuesday night, here are five storylines to look for during the 2016 World Series and a prediction:
