Sports Illustrated World Series commemorative issues now for sale
The moments from the Chicago Cubs 2016 World Series victory can now be found in your own home. Sports Illustrated is offering commemorative edition magazines that feature some of the most exciting moments from Game 7 against the Cleveland Indians.
Your 2016 World Series Champions are a once in a lifetime team. They won 103 games, won the 2016 World Series, and broke a curse that lasted for 108 years. The Cubs made history, not just in winning, but also in how they won.
Game 7 was arguably the best baseball game ever to be played and the 2016 World Series is arguably the best postseason series ever. In a wild Game 7 that featured a game-tying home run in the 8th inning, a rain delay and extra innings, the Cubs prevailed.
Dexter Fowler’s leadoff home run, Jon Lester’s incredible relief performance, David Ross’s redemption home run, and Ben Zobrist’s game-winning hit are just a few of the lifelong memories Cubs fans will have. And some of the best moments in winning the World Series can be delivered straight to your door.
Now, Sports Illustrated is letting fans relive those moments forever through a commemorative edition of the magazine. With five available options, you will be able to choose which moment of history you want forever.
The available covers are:
- Kris Bryant rounding third base;
