Cleveland sports fans enjoy a day like no other

CLEVELAND — It is exactly 249 feet from the Left Field District gates at Progressive Field and the neighboring entrance to Quicken Loans Arena, and on Tuesday night, that stretch was a place unlike any other in professional sports history. Giddy fans celebrated their good fortune in that happy confluence, some of them walking into Game 1 of the 112th World Series between the Indians and the Cubs, and some walking into Opening Night and a ring ceremony for the Cavaliers.
For brothers Greg and Patrick Tripi of Cleveland, this was the ultimate place to be. As they walked into the Fall Classic wearing Indians caps and headed to Section 557 in the upper deck behind home plate, behind them was the same arena where they had attended each NBA Finals home game in June.
