Strat-O-Matic Picks Cleveland Indians to Win World Series in Game 6
It's the matchup that fans have been waiting to see for generations.

CLEVELAND, OH — Strat-O-Matic, the popular fantasy baseball game and simulator, has been predicting the outcome of all World Series games, and the site has correctly picked the winner of each game in the series so far.
How accurate is Strat-O-Matic? Check out the prediction for Game 1. The site predicted a shutout and was on the money with the aggressive base running by the Indians.
CLEVELAND vs. CHICAGO
Game 1
Chicago 0 4 1
Cleveland 4 9 0
Cleveland opened the series in winning fashion, right across the street from where their basketball team was raising its championship banner. Corey Kluber, the AL Pitcher of the Month for August 2016, pitched seven innings of two-hit ball. Jon Lester gave up four runs on seven hits and was victimized by some aggressive baserunning by Cleveland, yielding five stolen bases. Jose Ramirez went 3-for-4 with two RBI in the early innings as neither team scored after the third.

Not only does Strat-O-Matic pick the winner, the site also forecasts details like it's the Nostradamus of baseball. For example, Danny Salazar will get the win in relief, and Coco Crisp will catch a Dexter Fowler pop fly to make the last out and win the World Series for the Indians.

Game 6
Chicago 2 10 1
Cleveland 7 7 0
Cleveland wrote their names into the history books with a World Series win in front of the home fans. The action in this game happened early and often, and Danny Salazar, returning to the team for the World Series got the clinching win in relief. He gave up one hit and no walks in 1 and 1/3 innings. Arrieta was not sharp, allowing six walks in 2 and 2/3 innings and Cleveland scored all the runs they needed in the first four innings. While Schwarber picked up his seventh RBI, Jose Ramirez got his fourth and fifth en route to the victory. Dexter Fowler flew out to Coco Crisp to end the game, and the party in Cleveland began again!
If the Indians win, there will be another championship parade in Cleveland fulfilling the Nostradamus-like prediction of Ryan Williamson, the fan who created the Cleveland Indians Championship Parade back in June after he was unable to attend the Cleveland Cavaliers Championship Parade. Twenty-one thousand Indians fans have already committed to attending the parade on Williamson's Facebook page.
Indians fans can only wait, see and hope that Strat-O-Matic and Ryan Williamson are correct.
