My favorite Major League Baseball (MLB) team is the Chicago Cubs. My favorite players are Kris Bryant, Kyle Schwarber, and Dexter Fowler. The Cubs won the World Series this year, for the first time in 108 years.

Kris Bryant is my favorite Cubs’ player. He is 24, and this is his second year in the MLB. He attended The University of San Diego for college. He is a right handed batter. His batting average for the 2016 season was .292, and he had 102 RBIs. Kris Bryant also has bromance with Anthony Rizzo. Together, they are Brizzo.

I also like Kyle Schwarber and Dexter Fowler. Dexter Fowler is a switch hitter with a batting average of .276. He had 48 RBIs this season. Kyle Schwarber was hurt for basically the whole season. His batting average was .000.

This year, the Cubs won the World Series. They beat the Cleveland Indians. Ben Zobrist was the MVP; he had the game-running RBI in Game 7. It was a nail-biting game. The game went into extra innings. There was a rain delay, and during that time Jason Heyward gave a speech to the players. They ended up winning 8 to 7. There was an estimated 5 million people at their championship parade.

All in all, the Cubs are a pretty amazing team with some really amazing players. The majority of their players are young and still have a long career ahead of them. Hopefully they will do excellent next year, and bring home another championship to Chicago.
