Cubs radio play-by-play man Pat Hughes on 670 WSCR gives a perfect description of the play that ended the game.
"A little bouncer slowly toward Bryant," Hughes says. "He will glove it and throw to Rizzo. It’s in time. And the Chicago Cubs win the World Series! The Cubs come pouring out of the dugout, jumping up and down like a bunch of delirious 10-year-olds. The Cubs have done it! The longest drought in the history of American sports is over, and the celebration begins.”
