The Chicago Cubs crushed the Cleveland Indians 9-3 Tuesday night in Game 6 of the World Series, with the decisive Game 7 set for Wednesday night. Addison Russell batted in six runs for the Cubs, including a grand slam in the third inning that gave the Cubs a 7-0 lead. Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo each hit home runs of their own, and pitcher Jake Arrieta allowed two runs on three hits, three walks, and nine strikeouts over nearly six innings. Game 7, like Game 6, will be played at Progressive Field in Cleveland, starting at 8:08 p.m. ET on Fox.
