The Cubs broke serve in Game 2, and by winning on the road they fulfilled the the series starts once a home team loses a game cliché. So while conventional wisdom says we have a series, oddsmakers treated the win as if it were the first nail in the Indians coffin. The Cubs, roughly 2-1 favorites to win the Series before Game 1, are now listed as -230 favorites.With 2016 ERA champ Kyle Hendricks on the mound tonight, the Cubs are listed as a -200 favorite and similar odds are sure to follow for Game 5. That makes this an awfully big game for the Indians. Win this one, with Corey Kluber starting tomorrow, and Cleveland has a realistic path to not only get the series back to Cleveland but to have two chances at wrapping up the title on their home field.That cheery scenario is wholly dependent on winning tonights game though, and in truth, the manner in which the Indians lost Wednesday probably maximizes their chance for winning tonight. By virtue of falling behind early and losing decisively, the Indians have fully rested bullpen weapons in Andrew Miller and Cody Allen. Tonights starter, Josh Tomlin, has been good for five innings of very effective work in each of his two postseason starts this year. He gave up two runs to the Red Sox and one to the Blue Jays, and if he can do the same against another high-scoring offense tonight for five innings, the Indians intra-game win probability will soar.Whether he will do that tonight is another question and, in fact, its the most important question for baseball handicappers Joe Peta and Dave Tuley to tackle as they assess possible value offered by either side. Both of our handicappers have picks on the Cubs for the Series, although Tuleys savvy decision to delay the pick got him the discounted price of -115 before Game 2. Through Game 2 of the Series, Peta is 1-0, +1 unit, (10-0, +11.33 units for the postseason) while Tuley is 2-1, +0.93 units having successfully hit the under in both World Series games so far.Westgate line:?Cleveland Indians (Tomlin) +180 at Chicago Cubs (Hendricks) -200?

They are simply the much better team, and as weve seen this October, it takes a superior pitching performance to negate that advantage. Corey Kluber, like Clayton Kershaw, Johnny Cueto, et al. before him, has the skill set to turn in such a performance.
