One thing to remember, at 1:07:04 when Bryant hit's this HR to tie the game, the Cubs NEVER TRAILED from that point for the rest of the 2016 World Series.
The game might have been tied, but never fell behind and always took the lead first.

2:33:56 the play that saved the World Series for the Cubs and no one talks about it

[Frank_Cohen]

25:41 A most memorable pop up
1:06:55 Smoltz speaking of urgency of getting on board followed by Bryant's HR, which would spark the greatest 3 game winning streak in Cubs and in WS history.
1:08:15 So loud at Rizzo's double. Notice how quickly and how much they had to turn down the fan noise for the play call.
1:11:04 Zobrist singles to advance Rizzo to 3rd
1:14:17 Russell singles in Rizzo
1:14:28 Russell single, RBI. Rizzo scores.
1:18:57 Baez with loudest bunt ever to load bases
1:24:17 Ross with sacrifice and RBI, 3-1
2:06:48 Baez's tag. SMH
2:13:37 Baez's terrific tags.
3:10:10 Chapman's 8 out save. Big K. Indians strand man at 3rd. Phew. Listen to Wrigley wail!
3:29:56 Chapman's 6th out. Wrigley wail intense
3:33:22 2 outs!
3:34:56 Chappy's 8th out with K. CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN FIRST WORLD SERIES GAME AT WRIGLEY SINCE 1945! HOLY COW! (Harry Caray voice)

1:06:45 you can't tell me this wasn't scripted. that hit changed the momentum of the whole series. that's where the comeback started

[petis]

It's funny how David Ross and Jon Lester are heroes in two of the most historic ball clubs in Baseball.

[jayzee]

We go from Cubs fans relieved to not seeing their season end in Game 5 with that "Go Cubs Go" singing to WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS three days later.

[angelrodriguez]

the greatest song in sports go cubs go

[matthartman]

Smoltz: You've got to put something on the board right here. Bryant bomb. Tie game. For me that's the turning point of the whole series. The Cubs never trailed again as they won three straight.

[eccentricgamer]

1:07:06: Kris Bryant solo HR
1:14:20: Addison Russell RBI single
1:24:19: David Ross sac. fly
3:34:59: Cubs win

I love watching the 2016 Major League Baseball World Series game 5 full game on YOUTUBE and the circus play too.

[therkokid]

When you can hear fans singing from almost 6 miles away, it means something!

[tiancleveland]

This still brings me tears of joy this is the game where we turned everything around

[daveyhavok]

I’ve never had to skip so many commercials in my life.

[angelrodriguez]

the greatest year of my life go cubs go 2016

[spongebobgamingrblx]

I always replay the part of them singing go cubs go. I used to live in Chicago and I love the cubs so much ❤️

[timsmith]

This series changed on 3 plays: the Heyward catch, Bryant homer and rizzo double.

[purwantiallan]

Reliving 2016 MLB Matches during 2020 covid19....

[BeSm-qqrs]

As a long time Tribe fan I knew this was the beginning of the end. Game 7 was a freak show. 80 degrees
in Cleveland in November??? A rain delay? The baseball Gods have a sense of humor.

[Michiganrailfan]

Tigers fan here. Glad to see the cubs win a world series. This was a hell of a classic.

[multiyapples]

The World Series win we never thought we’d see.
