A crosstown World Series between the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox will not materialize this October, but both teams head into the MLB postseason alive in the wild-card round. Each club can advance with a series win, keeping the possibility of a deep Chicago playoff run on the table as fans weigh what a Red Line World Series might have looked like.
Why now: Both Chicago teams reaching the postseason at the same time has revived talk of a dream crosstown World Series matchup.
