For Cleveland sports fans, Tuesday night was just about as good as it gets.

The Indians offense erupted for a 6-0 victory in Game 1 of the World Series, while the Cavaliers received their championship rings across the parking lot.

As if that wasn't enough for the city — which hadn't won a pro sports championship since 1964 before the Cavs won the NBA Finals in June — LeBron James reminded everybody exactly why it's a good time to be in Cleveland.
