CLEVELAND -- Chicago Cubs slugger Kyle Schwarber isnt sure if he can play defense when the World Series shifts to Wrigley Field for Games 3, 4 and 5 this weekend, but he and the team arent ruling anything out.Well see where it goes, Schwarber said after the Cubs 5-1 win over the Cleveland Indians in Game 2 on Wednesday. Nothings set in stone. No ones told me anything, so as of right now, the story is still the same.Schwarber was the designated hitter for Games 1 and 2, going 3-for-7 with two walks and two RBIs -- both coming in Game 2. He missed all but three games of the regular season after tearing two ligaments in his left knee in early April, but doctors cleared him last week to play, though not in the field. At least not yet.I have no idea, Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. Were going to go back. We have a mandatory workout tomorrow, so were going to be at the ballpark. If its OK, possibly, you might see him taking some fly balls, if theres any chance at all.The Cubs could play Schwarber in left field and move?Ben Zobrist to right, as Maddon has started three different right fielders over the past three playoff games after benching Jason Heyward.Well see, Schwarber said. I havent tried it. So well take it day by day, like I said.Schwarber became the first position player in MLB history to earn his first hit of the season in the World Series after missing nearly the entire year.Im living the dream, Schwarber said. Were playing in the World Series. What else could you ask for? Im just going to keep riding the wave until it ends.The fourth pick in the 2014 draft is already a fan favorite after hitting five postseason home runs in 2015 to become the all-time franchise leader in that category. Cubs fans will undoubtedly be excited if Schwarber can do more than pinch hit over the next three games.[Its] going to be what the doctors tell us, Maddon said. But I honestly dont know. Thats something Im waiting to hear from our guys, from our medical side, because obviously, he looks good. He looks good at the plate. Running the bases, he looks pretty good so far. I talked to him there before his last at-bat. I asked him if he got on base if he was good to go. He said, Yes, and I said, OK, fine.Schwarber singled twice in Game 2 on Wednesday, each time driving in a run, then he walked, as the Cubs evened the Series 1-1. Game 3 is Friday night at Wrigley Field.?I have total faith that he can, Maddon said. Im not even concerned about that. My concern is what the doctor does say regarding lateral movement, quick stops, abrupt stops, change of direction. Those are the kind of things I dont know anything about.

He just might be the biggest nightmare as an opponent -- particularly with a championship on the line. The 6-foot-9 Bruins defenceman has been causing all sorts of havoc for opponents and is a major reason why theyre aiming for their second championship in three years. Theyre set to take on Hossa and the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday, the first time Original Six franchises are meeting for the title since 1979. Itll also be friend against friend, neighbour against neighbour. Hossa and Chara played junior hockey together, and they live in apartments across the street from each other in Slovakia. "Ill try to joke with him because he likes to be serious all the time on the ice," Hossa said. "He doesnt like to talk on the ice, so I just try to throw some funny stories (at him) and hopefully make him laugh." Anything to break the ice, particularly if it distracts an opponent. Chara has been a big reason why the Bruins are back in the Cup finals. "You have no idea what this guy does for a hockey club," coach Claude Julien said. "The few times hes been out of our lineup, youve seen a difference. Thats the impact that he has on our hockey club. Again, I think weve had an up-and-down second half of a short season. "Im sure that played a role in maybe looking at others for the Norris Trophy. But, again, I dont think its changed our views on him. Hes been an MVP for us since the day he stepped into that dressing room, and continues to be." Chara was the focal point in a game plan that kept former MVPs Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin without a point while the Bruins swept high-scoring Pittsburgh in the Eastern Conference finals. The Blackhawks are so concerned about him, it looks as if theyre putting stars Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane on different lines. They were on separate lines in practice on Monday, with Toews working with Hossa and Patrick Sharp and Kane skating with Michal Handzus and Bryan Bickell. It could be gammesmanship or a signal that the Blackhawks are trying to keep one of their top scorers away from Chara.dddddddddddd. Either way, it shows just how big an impact hes had in the playoffs. He helped shut down Malkin in the conference finals while the Bruins held the Penguins to just two goals. Now, Boston is facing another skilled and deep team. No one dominated in the regular season like Chicago, which got off to a record start and captured the Presidents Trophy. But no ones been stingier than Boston in the playoffs. The Bruins have allowed just 30 goals in 16 games for a league-best 1.88 average in the playoffs. They finished third behind Chicago and Ottawa during the regular season, and they just swept a team that led the league in goals. Now, theyll try to shut down the Blackhawks. "Theyre very skilled, fast, have a lot of depth on their team," Chara said. In some ways, the Blackhawks remind him of Pittsburgh, and the Penguins didnt fare too well against Boston. "I think were looking forward to the challenge," Chicagos Brent Seabrook said. "I think our forwards are looking forward to the challenge. Boston did a great job against Pittsburgh taking away their offensive skill guys and what not. Our forwards are going to have to work. Our D are going to have to work to get up and help our forwards. Its going to have to be a complete team effort." Particularly with Chara on the other side. Its not just him, though. Theres Dennis Seidenberg and Andrew Ference, who returned from an injury for the conference finals. As good as theyve been at shutting down opponents, Bruins defenders are also contributing on the offensive end. They have 15 goals in the post-season. Johnny Boychuk has five and Torey Krug four. And besides being a major factor on defence, Chara has nine assists. "Hes the biggest guy on the ice," Hossa said. "His stick is so big. If you dont move your feet, hes going to hurt you. Hes going to come close to you and pin you on the board. So you have to make sure youre moving your feet. You cant try to stop and start." ' ' '
