— -- Chicago Cubs outfielder Dexter Fowler started Game 7 by becoming the first player to lead off a winner-take-all World Series game with a home run, according to ESPN Stats & Info.

The solo home run sparked a comical back-and-forth between the Cubs' Twitter account and Fowler's wife, Darya Aliya Fowler.

Don't fear the goat, be the goat

One can either avoid a curse at all costs or attack it head-on. This fan has chosen the latter.?

The Cleveland spirit extends to the police ... and horses

The Cleveland police outfitted themselves (and some horses) with Indians garb ahead of Game 7.

Born into it

Will these Cleveland-born babies bring good luck to the Indians??

No ticket, no problem

So you weren't lucky enough to? run into Bill Murray on the street? This viewing party outside Progressive Field might be the next best option.

So about that first pitch ...

Sorry, Indians fans: Charlie Sheen won't be throwing out a World Series first pitch this year. But you might be getting the next best thing with Cleveland legend Jim Thome slated to get Game 7 started.

Sheen is still planning to attend the game.

Win or lose, end of the road for Ross

During an appearance on MLB Network Radio back in November 2015, Cubs catcher David Ross said the 2016 season was "probably going to be it for me."

In the hours before Game 7, some of his Cubs teammates gathered on the field to celebrate the 39-year-old.

There are also bats with a Bitmoji version of Ross' face on the handle.

Cubs fans comfortable in Cleveland

They aren't hiding their allegiance, despite being in enemy territory.

Coach Cal found a ticket

Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari showed his followers his impressive view of the game.

Indians make it 7-for-7 with unis

Seventh verse, same as the first: The Indians will once again wear their navy jerseys for Game 7 of the World Series. Win or lose, they will become the first team to wear the same jersey design throughout a World Series.
