Game 1 went about as well as could possibly be expected for Cleveland. While Corey Kluber struck out batters at a World Series-record pace (eight of the first nine Cubs outs were via punchout), the Indians rattled Jon Lester for two runs in the first without hitting a ball hard. Although more runs crossed the plate later, the events of the first inning were really all the bullpen protection duo of Andrew Miller and Cody Allen needed, and it all made for a thrilling night for Cleveland sports fans.Its a cliché of course, but there a lot of wisdom to the maxim that a postseason series doesnt really started until the home team loses a game.
