1948 World Series
The Cleveland Indians walk off the field after winning the 1948 World Series by defeating the Boston Braves.

Chief Thunderwater made the following prediction, "May the best warriors win, as long as they are Cleveland's." He went on to say, "I knew they were going to win. That came to me many moons ago. I saw a cloud on the horizon but I didn't know what it was. It must have been Hal Newhouser. Now the Cleveland Indians are going to beat the Boston Braves." The Chief was right - The Cleveland Indians won the 1948 World Series!
