1991 game 7 best ever... but yes it was an exciting game

Best game 7 ever was 1991 Twins vs Braves  
Jack Morris going the distance to win it 1-0 in 10 innings vs Braves John Smoltz

1991 series was the longest 7 game series ever played and named ESPN best world series
in 100 years of baseball.

Cubs manager sure made game 7 more exciting than it needed to be.

Cubs to repeat in 2017 book it.... it's a lead pipe cinch.
Every time Cubs win World Series it's ALWAYS 2 in a row.
LOL

Exciting but best game 7 ever was 1991

Twins vs Braves 1-0 in 10 innings game 7 with Jack Morris going the distance vs John Smoltz
game 6 went 11 innings with Kirby Puckett (HOF) hitting a walk off home run to send it to game 7

1991 series was the longest 7 game World Series ever
ESPN named 1991 the best World Series of 100 yrs of baseball.  

But last night's game was exciting... thanks to Cubs manager mismanagement of pitching staff.
Congratulations again Chicago

By the way Cubs Will Repeat In 2017
Whenever Cubs win World Series they ALWAYS win 2 in a row!

It was a great game, but

Game 6 in 1986 was IMHO far more dramatic. The NY Mets are on the brink of losing the Series.  Mookie Wilson hits what should be an easy out to Bill Buckner at first. It goes through his legs, giving the Mets new life and ending Buckner's career in ignominy.

Congratulations Cub's, The curse of Murphy has been lifted.....

The Curse of the Billy Goat was the name of a sports-related curse that was supposedly placed on the Chicago Cubs Major League Baseball franchise in 1945 by Billy Goat Tavern owner William Sianis that lasted in a 71-year period from 1945 to 2016. Because the odor of his pet goat, Murphy, was bothering other fans, Sianis was asked to leave Wrigley Field, the Cubs' home ballpark, during game 4 of the 1945 World Series.[1][2] Outraged, Sianis allegedly declared, "Them Cubs, they ain't gonna win no more," which has been interpreted to mean that either the Cubs would never win another National League (NL) pennant, or that they would never again win a World Series.

The Cubs lost the 1945 World Series to the Detroit Tigers, and did not win a World Series championship again until 2016. After the incident with Sianis and Murphy, the Cubs did not play in the World Series for the next 71 years until, on the 46th anniversary of Billy Sianis' death,[3] they defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 5–0 in game 6 of the 2016 National League Championship Series to win the NL pennant.[4] The Cubs defeated the American League (AL) champion Cleveland Indians 8–7 in game 7 (which lasted 10 innings) to win the 2016 World Series, thus ending the curse.[5]

This Yankee fan loved it! Congrats to the Cubs. And also to the Indians on a great year.

Of course, neither of you could have done it without the cream of our bull pen! LOL!  But, jeez, you wore those guys out!  Anyway, especially happy for the Cubs fans on the end of your long drought.  Loved watching you sing "Take Me Out To The Ball Game" during game 5.

Best WS ever?

Yes! With the 2 longest droughts in the MLB going up against each other? A 108 year drought for the Cubs and what is honestly a miracle season for the Indians? This has sports movie written all over it no matter the outcome.  Even with the mismanagement of the pitching staff.

On another note, Theo Epstein is so hot... Love the way he put it all together.

I am not really into sports but caught the 10th inning and found it pretty exciting!!

the excitement from the players and the crowd was insane and couldn't help but draw everyone into the excitement.  Congrats Cubbies, broke a curse and put on a heck of a show!

Not saying this was the greatest baseball every played...

Some booted plays, some bonehead calls, some bad umpiring, and a couple of managerial moves that leave me bewildered, still....  As you say, IT'S MY MONEY, there were some moves by the Cub's management that I DO NOT GET!  

But in terms of sheer excitement, this was the nail-biter for the ages....

And GOOD for baseball, too -- millions of people who never watch the Series any more tuned in.  

Thank you, Chicago, for a wonderful time.  And thanks, Cleveland, too, for an amazing struggle.  No shame there in losing in game seven like that....  Great series, class acts, class teams.... As a lifelong NYY fan, I can only stew with envy at the ball playing of these young, classy teams....
