Jason Kipnis is doing everything in his power he can to prevent a Game 7 and help the Indians win their first World Series championship in 68 years.

In the bottom of the fifth inning, the Tribe's second baseman sent an opposite field home run to left to cut the team's deficit to 7-2.

Earlier in the game, he doubled to the same side to spark the offense. Mike Napoli would hit a single to drive Kipnis in two batters later to produce Cleveland's first run of the ballgame.

Have a game, JK!
