One down, three to go as the Cleveland Indians attempt to end a 68-year World Series title drought.
Corey Kluber came up big, and so did his offence.
The Indians ace pitched six innings of shutout ball and Roberto Perez hit two home runs as Cleveland downed the Chicago Cubs 6-0 in Game 1 of the World Series.
Kluber finished with nine strikeouts and limited the Cubs to four hits over six-plus innings to pick up the victory.
A-L-C-S M-V-P Andrew Miller pitched out a bases-loaded, nobody out jam in the seventh inning. He hasn't given up a run in 22 post-season innings.
Game 2 is tonight in Cleveland, with the start time moved up one hour, at 7:08 p.m. Eastern Time, due to the threat of rain.
