Chicago Cubs players celebrate on the field after defeating the Cleveland Indians in game seven of the 2016 World Series at Progressive Field.

The Chicago Cubs are World Series champions.

That's a sentence that not many expected to be able to accurately write. But on Wednesday, it happened. The Cubs edged out the Indians 8-7 in 10 innings to take Game 7 and win their first World Series since 1908.

Now, 108 years means a lot of excitement. This was how the sports world reacted.

World Series Champions.
