Tomlin, Andrew Miller, Bryan Shaw, and Cody Allen combined to shut out the Cubs. The win marked the Cubs' first World Series game victory since 1945, and tied up the series at one game all.Ĭhicago pitcher Kyle Hendricks started against Cleveland pitcher Josh Tomlin during Game 3, a low-scoring contest where the only run came off a Coco Crisp single that scored Michael Martinez from third in the seventh inning. Both teams threatened in the seventh but could not score and, following a single by Mike Napoli in the bottom of the eighth, Aroldis Chapman entered to finish the game for the Cubs. Arrieta allowed another single and was lifted for reliever Mike Montgomery. In the sixth, a double by Jason Kipnis ended the no-hitter, moved to third on a groundout and scored the lone Indians run of the game on a wild pitch by Arrieta. Arrieta continued to pitch well, walking three batters but holding the Indians without a hit into the sixth inning. Another run-scoring single by Schwarber off Bryan Shaw and a bases-loaded walk by Addison Russell pushed the lead to 5-0. Rizzo walked again off Zach McAllister, and Zobrist tripled to plate Rizzo. Bauer was forced from the game in the fourth, and the Cubs struck again in the fifth. A single by Kyle Schwarber scored Rizzo from second and pushed the Cubs' lead to 2-0. The Cubs struck again in the third following a two-out walk by Rizzo and a single by Ben Zobrist. The Cubs started things off early as Kris Bryant singled in the first inning and Anthony Rizzo doubled to score Bryant and give the Cubs an early 1-0 lead. The Cubs also featured six players under age 25 in the starting lineup, a postseason record. Looking to tie the series at one game apiece, the Cubs sent Jake Arrieta to the mound against the Indians' Trevor Bauer. Andrew Miller and Cody Allen finished the victory for the Indians despite Miller having to pitch out of a bases-loaded jam in the seventh, and the Indians took Game 1 of the series 6-0. In the eighth, Justin Grimm walked Guyer with two outs and allowed a single to Lonnie Chisenhall, then Hector Rondon allowed Perez's second home run of the night.

Perez's home run in the fifth made it 3-0 Indians.

In the first, the Indians loaded the bases off Jon Lester on a single and two walks before Jose Ramirez's single drove in a run, then Lester hit Brandon Guyer with a pitch to force in another. Corey Kluber made World Series history by striking out eight hitters in the first three innings of Game 1.
