After Saturday's win, it's set in stone: the Chicago Cubs will be paying the Indians in the World Series. But baseball fans weren't the only ones who are excited about the match-up. 

Throughout post-season, Lebron James has been extra supportive of the Indians and after the Cubs victory, his old teammate Dwyane Wade (who was signed to the Bulls in July) reached out to make a friendly wager. 

The Indians are set to host the first game of the World Series on Tuesday night with the first pitch at 8:08 p.m. while right next door Lebron and the rest of the Cavs will take on the New York Knicks starting at 7:30 p.m.
