World Series 2016 Livestream: Where To Watch First Game Between Chicago Cubs & Cleveland Indians For Free Online
The 2016 World Series is bound to be one for the history books with two teams that haven't seen their postseason go this far fighting for the title, but you won't have to worry about missing out on the action if you don't have a television.
The action will begin with Game 1 tonight at 8 p.m. EST, with the Chicago Cubs facing off against the Cleveland Indians at Progressive Field, and there will be several livestreams available that will allow you to tune in to the game online.
Both Fox Sports TV and MLB.tv will have a live stream of the game that can be accessed for free by following the links. A one-time authentication will be required on the MLB page.
What is making this particular World Series best-of-seven so special and historic is that most fans of either team who are alive today have never seen their teams win a World Series, and in the case of Cubs fans, most have not even seen them appear in a World Series match-up at all. The Cubs have not won a world series since 1908-over a century ago, and the last time they even appeared in the annual championship was back in 1945, meaning the only fans who could have possibly seen them in a world series at all, would be 71 years old today.
As for Cleveland fans, some have seen them appear in the World Series, with them winning their League Champion titles in 1995 and 1997 and eventually losing the Series, meaning it's only been 19 years since their last appearance. But, as far as their last win goes that hasn't happened since 1948-meaning the only fans who have seen them win are now 68 years old.
Either way, no matter who wins, this will be one for the books.
