A Chicago Cubs sign is among the items left at the grave of Johnny Evers at St. Mary's Cemetery on Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2016, in Troy, N.Y. Some Cubs fans are hoping they can break a 108-year-old World Series championship drought by leaving items at the New York grave of the middle man in the team's famed Tinker-to-Evers-to-Chance double-play combination. Evers was the second baseman for the Cubs team that won the 1908 World Series. He was immortalized a few years later in a New York newspaper reporter's 50-word poem, along with future fellow Hall of Famers shortstop Joe Tinker and first baseman Frank Chance.
