As they have been for the Indians' postseason run, LeBron James and the Cavs were in attendance at Progressive Field for World Series Game 7 to show some #Believeland solidarity.
Early on, things were fairly calm. Not that LeBron and the Cavs weren't excited, but the Cubs had maintained a lead for most of the game, J.R. Smith still had his shirt on and all of Cleveland was starting to consider things might not go their way.
Then -- two innings before the Cubs pulled out the 8-7 victory -- Rajai Davis hit a game-tying two-run homer in the eighth inning and LeBron celebrated as if harnessing the collective "YEEEEAAAAAHHHH" of every single Indians fan inside the ballpark:

The Indians may have lost the Series, but for a moment, LeBron was pumped. up.
