chicago sunday night and we knew it happened to the indians so they could come back home and win the championship in front of the home crowd and when we do win the world championship it is going to be a bit of a rare occurrence, rob, not because we haven't done so since 1948 but because the path that brought the team this far was victory. jason kipnis spoke about the opportunity to clench it at home. >> it would be nice to do it in front of the fans. it looks like detroit beat the division and boston and toronto. here is the question. what is it going to take to clench the game? >> a lot of stuff.

you have a chance to win, try to win because a lot of times you worry about it. if you worry about tomorrow, you don't have a lead anyway. so we will just do our best to win tonight. >> and i think the thing to look at is how long he lets josh tomlin pitch. if he is on a roll you might expect him to pitch longer than he has in the playoffs so far. if he goes in the 5th he does that or in the 6th that will be great. everyone is available. this is a all that what he does with tomlin tonight will be interesting based on what he did with him during the regular season compared to what he is doing with him here in the playoffs. let's go out to you guys. it makes perfect sense. any world series tends to draw sports fans. >> that's right. but a match-up between two teams that have decades
