The first title since 1908. We are live at Wrigley Field in a moment. And later, a meal with Anthony Bourdain. Well have a seat at the table with the outspoken chef who has shown us the world through food. How do you find the places that the rest of us dont even know exist . The kind of questions were asking is, look, what does your soul crave at 2 00 in the morning when you have a little bit of a buzz . More with Anthony Bourdain a bit later in the show, but we begin this morning with a celebration 71 years in the making. The cubs are headed to the world series. Let me say that again. The cubs are headed to the world series. They beat the dodgers in game six of the National League championship series 50. Ron mott is outside Wrigley Field where im sure theres still some partying going on. Ron, good morning. Reporter absolutely, willie. Good morning. Wow, what a night in the city of chicago. A night that will never end for a lot of people who have waited their entire lives to hear the phrase the cubs are going to the world series. Out. The cubs have won the pennant and they got there in spectacular fashion. A 50 shutout of the l. A. Dodgers capped off with a dazzling double play to launch a celebration for the ages. Its been many years, 71 exactly, since fans got to route for the cubs in the world series. There are a few of those fans still out there and with that long streak still over theyd like to see a longer one wiped away, 108 years the last time the cubs were world champions. To put that into some perspective, consider this. This venerable old ballpark, Wrigley Field, the second oldest behind fenway park in boston was not even around when the cubs last won the world series. Neither was fenway park for that matter. Fans say its time to end all of that. They also say its time to let bygones be bygones. Steve fan bartman ras the fan in 2003 when the cubs were five outs away from going to the world series when he interfered with a foul ball and a lot of people blamed him for a rally that the marlins then put on to win game 6, turned around and won game 7 and went to the world series instead of the cubs. Take a look at some of the folks on twitter. One person writing, it was never Steve Bartmans fault, but i hope hes sitting somewhere tonight with people who love him feeling a measure of absolution. Bartman, youre off the hook. Cubs are going to the world series. The Cleveland Indians will have a little bit to say about which of these two cities, chicago, cleveland will celebrate and last laugh in the next week to ten days. A great young cubs team that doesnt seem concerned with bartman, billy goats or anything else game one is tuesday night in cleveland. Now to the race for the white house. With 16 days to go until the election, the candidates are setting up shop in battleground states. Donald trump still claiming the election is rigged while campaigning in ohio and delivering his own gettysburg address. Hillary clinton out with her running mate tim kaine. Kristen welker in raleigh, north carolina. Kristen, good morning. Reporter hey, willie, good morning to you. Secretary clinton has two campaigns where the polls are tight. She is focused on running up the score while donald trump is trying to run off a Major Political comeback. Surging in the polls, Hillary Clinton and tim kaine holding a rare late night rally in the heart of philadelphia saturday. I dont think about responding to that. Reporter on the stump casting Donald Trumps talk of a rigged system as dangerous. Make no mistake about this, my friends. He is threatening our democracy. Reporter the democrats want to win big. Surrogates including miley cyrus, katy perry in battleground states. Running mate mike pence also making a frenzied final push together in ohio. This is a rigged system. Its a rigged election, believe me. The site of the legendary civil war address trying to cast himself as a uniter with proposals for the first 100 days. First i will announce my intention to totally renegotiate nafta. Reporter his speech turned to retribution for the women accusing him of unwanted advances. All of these liars will be sued after the election is over. Reporter on saturday an 11th accuser came over, adult film actress jessica drake. Donald then asked me, what do you want . How much . Reporter trump has denied all the allegations, which havent been verified by nbc news. Tim kaine counts him. Here hes saying in the first 100 days. Im not changing. I may be president of the United States but im going to focus on settling scores. Reporter feeling emboldened, clinton and kaine told reporters they will be focused on helping democrats in down ballot races. When asked about reports that her Transition Team is amping up, she said shes superstition shus and focused on winning the race. Kristen welker. Thanks. Lets bring in hugh hewett. Hes a political analyst for msnbc and radio analyst. He joins us from his studio in suburban washington. Thanks for being up early on sunday. Thanks, willie. I want to ask you about Donald Trumps tactics. He laid out a contract with the american voters, all things a conventional candidate would do and then near the end of the speech he says of the women accusing him, quote, all of these liars will be sued after the election is over. Does that capture for you some of the frustration with the Trump Campaign that there are flashes of a candidate who could win over shadowed by a line like that. Reporter especially, willie, yes, especially as the real clear politics show the race tightening a tick and its down 5 and. 8. Donald trump should stay focused on that. President obama, there are traditional blocking and tackles you can do at this point. You dont run the double reverse, hail mary statute of liberty. You dont leave that radioactive to this campaign. Mr. Trumps speech yesterday, the remarks about his accusers are best left on the side until after the election is over but the election isnt over. There are millions of americans, half million in pennsylvania who are getting massive premium hikes. Pat toomey is advantaged by that because obamacare is going to collapse in the face of liberal democrats over the next three weeks and so i wish mr. Trump would stay focused on that. Some of the corruption stories, but mostly on obamacare. Pat toomey, of course, the republican senator in pennsylvania in a tight race. You said Something Interesting there, hugh, this race is not over. I think most of the pollsters looking at it now have come out and objectively said its all but over. If you look at some of the numbers inside the swing states. What are some of the things youre seeing that may go against conventional wisdom and say trump maybe has a shot here. One that i just mentioned is most important. Absent im not counting the russian attacks on secretary clinton. Theres a lot of interesting stuff in the fsp operation otherwise known as wikileaks. It isnt the kind of thing that can move a needle. If they were to release her private server emails, that would move the needle. I look at the obamacare premiums, willie. In pennsylvania they are averaging in excess of 20 rate hike. I see that they are going up in florida, that they are skyrocketing in minnesota. Donald trump is not going to win minnesota, but there are other places where exchanges are shooting up. I also define the election as more than the president ial. I think as we mentioned senator pat toomey who is ahead in his reelection bid. Kelly ayotte who is tied in some polls. I look at richard burr, hes ahead. Roy blunt in missouri, hes ahead. Joe heck is closing and maybe in a dead heat at this point. Even ron johnson in wisconsin is coming back. If i look at the whole election i think over the next two weeks republicans have a lot to focus on in order to secure the house and maintain the republican majority and if mr. Trump really focuses like a laser on the fact that americans not only didnt get to keep their doctor or their plan, they didnt get to keep their second doctor or their second plan, theres an opportunity there. I say the rcp poll number, the gap is closing as of this morning. Hes only got about 2 1 2 more weeks to start focusing on it. Its getting late. Before i let you go weve been talking about the cubs. Youre a cleveland guy. Lets not forget about the tribe. They havent won since 1948. How about a prediction . Reporter the indians in five. In five . In five, willie. I think youll see kluber come out and dominate. Trevor bower come out and josh conlin. I hate to do that to the cubs fans, but the elite media is clearly favoring, elite media is in the tank. Go tribe rally together. A new attack on the elite media. Hugh hewett, great to see you. The next president will inherit a full plate of foreign policy. Theyre getting closer to the Northern City of mosul. The offensive is the culmination of a twoyear effort by u. S. Forces to help in the war against the terror group. Richard engel has been with the iraqi forces all week right on the front lines. Watch your step. There is a concern these could be booby trapped. And this morning richard is in bashika, iraq, good to take time to join us. Richard, always good to see you, my friend. If you could, set the stage for our viewers and tell us whats at stake as iraqi troops move into mosul. Well, when this offensive began a week ago it seemed like it was moving incredibly quickly and the advance on mosul seemed like it could happen within days. It has slowed down. It seemed like its not putting up much of a fight. Every inch na that it takes to to mosul, its a complex battlefield. You talked about iraqis and americans. In rye at you have iraqi troops that are involved, you also have kurdish troops who are involved. Im right now at one of the forward kurdish positions. In this mix are american advisors. There are some 500 american advisors who are very close to the battlefield, outside the wire, so to speak, and about 5,000 more who are mostly on their bases. The defense secretary ash carter who went to baghdad yesterday paid a visit to Northern Iraq today, to the city of erbil and did acknowledge in both places that americans are not just sitting back on their bases calling in airstrikes even though theyre called advisors. Everybody needs to understand that there are americans here that are in harms way. Their mission, which is to bring the enormous might of the american and Coalition Military to the support of Iraqi Security forces is a dangerous one. Reporter the key thing to understand about this is mosul is so important for all of the sides involved here. For president obama, mosul is a way to end his administration showing that he wasnt soft on isis, that he went out with a bang, so to speak, that he managed to take away this important city, a city that once had 2 Million People in it from isis. For the iraqi army, its crucial. The iraqi army left mosul two years ago in humiliation. They abandoned their weapons and ran away. Now they want to show that they arent cowards, that theyve reconstituted themselves and they are willing to fight. For isis, this is where isis declared its caliphate. If it loses this city, it could lose its caliphate, lose its prestige. So a lot of people have a great deal on the line here and i think thats why were seeing the fighting getting more intense the closer we get to mow tu mosul itself. Although were advising, jason feinan was killed this week. Richard engel in iraq. Thank you. Back here at home, big business, at t reached an agreement to buy time warner for 85 billion. The deal faces big hurdles with concerns about whether or not the combined company would have too much power in the media world. All right. Di dylon dryer is here. Very, very windy yesterday and were still looking at wind advisories across areas like boston. We could see gusts up near 40 miles an hour. Temperatures in the 30s and 40s. We arent going to warm up all that much this afternoon. Rutland near 49 degrees. New york up to 63. We are also looking for warmer weather to work back in across the rest of the cou good morning, everyone. If you enjoyed your saturday, get ready for round two with similar conditions all across the bay area. Were expecting cooler temperatures. Here is a look right now at your forecast. 53 in the peninsula. South bay, 51. Partly cloudy skies but overall for the most part we should be gearing up for a mostly sunny day before we start tracking those rain chances back in the bay area. Here are your expected highs for today. Were going to top out at 72 in san jose, 64 in San Francisco. Ill have more coming up in just a bit. And thats your latest forecast. Dylan, thanks very much.

Dylan is with me to go through the highs and the relative civility. I said relative civility. 24 hours after the debate the nominees were together for the annual al smith dinner. Michelle obama gives a speech and everyone loves it. My wife melania gives the exact same speech and people get on her case. Donald looks at the statute of liberty and sees a 4, maybe a 5 if she loses the torch and tablet and changes her hair. Some good comedy writing there. Trump was booed a couple of times as he got more personal on hillary. The man became internet famous for the abrupt change of expression from joy to horror. As trumps speech took a turn for the more direct criticism. Someone said hes a metaphor for the entire campaign. Pretty much. Our first love goes to one mans level of concern this week as flood waters rose around him while he was sitting at a hong kong starbucks with a super typhoon creating torrential rains that spilled into the store. My man does not budge, just sits there sipping his Pumpkin Spice latte and checking the box scores of the paper like nothing was wrong. Would you recommend that as a meteorologist or should you get out of the storm waters. Get out. That dude did not care. Our next high goes to Vice President joe biden and his need for speed. The onion has a long running gag about biden being a blue collar renegade in the white house. One famous ad is shirtless biden washes transam. This week jay leno released a clip in which the Vice President gets to drive his beloved 1967 corvette for only the third time in the nearly eight years since he took office and, man, did biden make the most of it. Sounds good. Try your brakes. I shouldnt say it on i i like speed. He likes speed and he likes burning rubber. Clearly. He couldnt have done it any other way. No. Biden also said this week, by the way, hed like to fight donald trump out behind the gym. A white tshirt on, pack of cigs rolled up. Pyongyang, north korea, the azalea, the smoking chimp. Zoo Officials Say the 19yearold chimp rips through a pack a day. Theyre quick to point out that like bill clinton, she doesnt inhale. She throws her a lighter and she fires up a smoke to the cheers and laughter to the crowds gathered around her. The zoo recently was renovated and reopened at the insistence of the dear leader, king jongun. So many other tricks you could teach. Bob dylan won the nobel prize. The bad news this week is that the nobel people couldnt get ahold of dylan to tell him. The permanent secretary said she gave up trying to reach dylan with the news after days of unreturned phone calls. His location wasnt a mystery. He was on stage in vegas the night he won. He didnt mention it. The only sign dylan knew was the quiet edition on his website that read, winner of the nobel prize in literature. A day later that had been removed from his website. One Nobel Academy called dylan impolite and arrogant. Hes just bob dylan. Our final goes to another Nobel Prize Winning dylan. Last week she posted this throw back thursday photo of herself as an awkward teen dressed in unintentional camouflage. In whats become a weekly tradition.

Thats why im voting yes on 56. S f good morning. Thanks for waking up to us. Youre taking a live look at San Francisco from the san bruno mountains. Thanks for joining us. We have a look at the microclimate forecast. Today were looking at a similar day just like yesterday with the exception of rain tonight. 51 degrees, partly cloudy skies in the south bay peninsula. 53 in San Francisco. But not everybody is going to get rain. At least not tonight. It looks like were tracking a storm system that could be bringing some rain pretty early on. So find out where and how much rain were expecting over the next couple days. Ill have that coming up in the full forecast. Today our temperatures will stay similar to what we saw yesterday. Yesterday we hit the predicted high of 73. Today were topping out at 72, 73 for san jose. 64 in San Francisco. Overall, it will be very similar to yesterday. Enjoy the sunshine before the clouds take over. Enjoy it while you have it. Thanks so much. Turning now to election day. The president ial candidates are hitting the campaign trail hard and courting the latino vote nationwide. Last night in san jose the Hispanic Foundation of Silicon Valley honored those who had given back to their community. But the buzz offstage was all about the president ial election, including concerns over how trump and clinton would handle Immigration Reform and education. A lot of hispanic families are concerned about their safety here in this country. A lot of them are immigrants from obviously from latin america, and theyre concerned about being able to live here freely like they have. Many at the event are still undecided, some telling us despite trumps promise of aggressive Immigration Reform including that wall at the u. S. mexican border, theyre not completely sold on the idea of a Clinton Presidency either. Election day is two weeks from tuesday. Gone but not forgotten. A Community Held a prayer vigil for a teen involved in an officerinvolved shooting in Sonoma County. It was held yesterday afternoon in santa rosa in the same lot where the shooting happened three years ago. 13yearold andy lopez was shot after a Sonoma County deputy misstook tmi mistook the teens pellet gun for an assault rifle. The deputy was cleared of any wrongdoing but protesters say justice has not been served. When i look at his story, its about a child who has been killed by a system that is set up to essentially demonize him. Lopezs family is suing Sonoma County in an ongoing wrongful death suit. And coming up this morning on today in the bay, well show you why getting to and from Yerba Buena Island and Treasure Island just got a whole lot easier. That plus all your top stories coming up at 7 00. We hope you join us then. For now, well send you back to the today show. She wants open borders, and thats crazy.

Big night in studio 8h with tom hanks as host and lady gaga as musical guest. If you ever watched any of Anthony Bourdains popular tv shows, you know how far hell go for a good, authentic meal. Raised as a chef in the kitchens of new york city, bourdain has become something of a one man food travel guide taking viewers along as he stops in every local joint he can find all over the world. For bourdain the setting is almost as important as the food. Anthony took me along as he cruised one of his favorite food strips here in queens, new york. I have to get you on the record on a couple of things. Sure. Pumpkin spice. Whos eating this stuff .

The best seller pulled back the curtain on the Restaurant Industry and detailed bourdains personal struggles with drug addiction. To date more than 1 million copies have been sold. Reporter what was the next leap from the book. Book becomes a huge success. Some delusional crackpots offered me a tv show. I said, look, i have a great idea. I travel around the world doing whatever i want in every cool place i ever dreamed of and you pay. Hows that idea . Sounds like, yeah, well take 13 of those. Even if you were a doctor or a lawyer, a teacher, you cant work only in the car. Its nice to know who were talking about when were talking about places with really complex problems.

Those of us who work in the News Business were covering the president s trip, sits down at a table in a little restaurant with an though think bourdain. Is it appropriate to pop one of these whole suckers. People were coming up recognizing me from the news photos in tears. Couldnt believe that the president ate their humble local specialty. They said, we could understand, spring rolls we would expect this. He ate this. He came to our city and drank hanoi beer and a place we know. What was it like to sit with him for an hour and a half. He seemed like a guy that wanted to be there and enjoyed drinking a beer from the bottle. When i asked him a tricky and potentially perilous question. Is it ever acceptable to put ketchup on a hot dog. He would say ketchup and mu mustard. You would get some wishywashy answer to not piss off all the people. He said, no, never. Reporter how do you find the places that the rest of us dont even exist. The kind of questions were asking is look what douse your soul crave at 2 00 in the morning when you have a bit of a buzz .

But what makes bourdain happiest is just cooking at home with his family. Whenever possible, you know, thats a true moment of terror.

So were your campaign consultants. Reporter Hello Campaign consultants. Hello. Reporter my team explained consistency is critical. We have this chunk of voters that were going to go get for you. Aspirational, positive messaging. You have to make it instantly captivating. You have to get their attention. Reporter the final vote. Hallie jackson loves coffee but not nearly as much as she loves america. Thats why shes running for office. Shell fight for us and the issues we care about.

Can i afford to be against my opponent . Thats the key thing, beat willie. That sour look on willies face, too. It was just there. Weve done our Opposition Research and weve heard willie geist does not like snap chat. Reporter thats true. Youre losing the snap chat war, willie. Reporter im Hallie Jackson and i approve this message. And hallie joins me now live. Im not going to dig any phi your attacks. Theyre false and i think its unfortunate that your campaign has taken on such a negative tenor. I brought you something for your office, willie. Your very own campaign poster. Cool to have your own gear. It was cool how they explained the font, the graphics and the colors. Like its all very intentional when they put it together for a political candidate like myself. And the voices who dont always know who theyre voicing it for. My mom saw it, i told her about the piece, she actually said she was going to have difficulty choosing who to vote for. Wow, i could win over your own mother. Embarrassing. I should point out shes only been in her home district 22 days. Sure, its because shes working her butt off. If thats how want to vote for. Good to see you. You too, pal. The artist who cannot see or hear now teaching others to feel art the way she does. Thers that was invigorating thers youre probably wondering why ive just carved a giant wooden tiger. Well, the answer is that a real one would maul me. Ive crafted dr. Whiskers here as a visual aid to show you that should you visit the lot, carmax associates will not pounce like tigers because people dont like that. Come here to buy a car. Dr. Whiskers wont pounce. Nobody will. Lose yourself in a rapture of sweet oat temptation, and cascades of chocolate. Kung fu flavor. Well actually its fiber one, not kung fu flavor. Fiber one, so delicious it should have another name. Only abreva can heal it in as few as two and a half days when used at the first sign. It penetrates deep and starts to work immediately to block the virus and protect healthy cells. Dont tough it out, knock it out, fast. Abreva. Its hard to imagine walking through an art museum and studying a painting or a sculpture any other way than by looking at it, but one extraordinary artist robbed there an accident of her sight is teaching people to experience art the way she does. Morgan radford has her story. Reporter what do you smell . What do you hear . What do you sense when you look at this painting . A lemon peel. A rolled up perhaps piece of paper. Reporter this is how emily gaucio leads discussions at new Yorks Metropolitan Museum of art. When we look at it we see what looks like a luxurious banquet. The artist is also saying we also have to remember that its not permanent. Reporter emily knows just how fleeting things can be. The budding painter lost her sight when she was struck by a bus while riding her bike in college. Thats why now emily experiences and shares art with a multisensory approach. Whats interesting is all our senses are connected in our brain. Its really for you to trust and interpret your own senses. A lot of what i depend on is recalling colors, recalling shapes of objects and what things look like. Reporter emilys work has shifted towards sculpture and she invited us to see some of her work in the studio. Reporter is this where you feel yourself . This is where i feel i can forget about everything and work and be myself. Reporter fellow artist daniel archan has known emily since college before her accident providing her space to create. Having her in the studio, it allows the rest of us to understand space in a different way by watching her interact with not only her work but the space in general. Maybe what we should do is we should blindfold you while you work. Reporter even doing this is interesting because, youre right, i would completely use my vision otherwise. Doing this is forcing me to feel it differently. Frankly, you know, experience it differently. I never would have noticed kind of the weight or the depth. The texture. Reporter the texture. Lets see how i did. Okay. Let me see. Oh, wow. Reporter did i do okay . This is really good. Reporter im going to take off my blindfold. See . Reporter not so bad. What do you want people to think of you as an artist and do you even want them to know that you are not sighted . It doesnt matter if they know that im blind or if they think that i have any other kind of disability. Thats not what my art is about. I think being able to touch art or experience art or imagine art, really im able to connect with it on a deeper level and understand it and think about it in a different way that i think to me is a lot more meaningful. Morgan radford reporting. This week we highlight another life well lived. Without phil chess, the sound of america music with the blues at its foundation would be very different. He was founder of chess records. Chess maintained chuck berry was the real king of rock and role. The man who immigrated from poland as a child and served in world war ii is credited from bringing blues music from barrooms to radio stations. The great buddy rye said chess was cutting the type of music no one else was paying attention to. Chess gave us the rolling stones. In 1961 Keith Richards saw a stranger named mick jagger holding two chess records. The boys connected then and there and formed a band naming it after a water song. Phil chess who helped bring the blues to the world died this week in tucson, arizona. He was 95 years old. Why am i so devastatingly handsome, im in a fragrance. Ad, and my sweethearts gone sayonara. This scarf, all thats left to remember. What she washed this like a month ago hows a guy supposed to move on the long lasting scent of gain flings. And now. Im in bristol, inia. Tennessee. On this side of the road is virginia. And on this side its tennessee. No matter which state in the country you live in, you could save hundreds on Car Insurance by switching to geico. Look, im in virginia. Im in tennessee. Virginia. Tennessee. And now im in virginessee. See how much you could save on Car Insurance. Or am i in tennaginia . Hmmm. Because shevery year. Ow that it kills 40,000 californians. Because she doesnt understand what cancer is. Because she cant spell emphysema. Because she is a butterfly, who fights fires. Because she is my daughter, and the Surgeon General says that raising tobacco taxes. Is a proven way to make sure she never smokes. Thats why im voting yes on 56. All all right, dylan. Lets close this down with some predictions from the week ahead. This afternoon president obama will campaign in las vegas for Hillary Clinton one day after early voting began in the state of nevada. President obama has been active on the trail telling donald trump this week to, quote, stop whining about the election being rigged. We predict the president will do what we all do on a beautiful fall sunday in vegas, sit in the dark sports book at bellagio and take the dolphins as a nice little three point home bet against the bills. You would never bet on football, never. On tuesday Cleveland Indians host game one of the world series against the chicago cubs. If they were to win it would be the First Time Since 1948. The cubs of course last won 40 years before that in 1908. Right next door to the stadium tuesday night lebron james and Cleveland Cavaliers hoist their championship banner. We predict if the cavs and indians win, the write in ticket of lebron james and coco crisp will win the state of ohio. Very possible. And on thursday its the grand opening of the guest house at graceland. New resort next to Elvis Presleys home and resting place in memphis. The rooms are made to have the feel of inside of elviss graceland home where he lived from 1957 until his death in 1977. Elvis ace widow Priscilla Presley designed the suites. We predict in keeping with the elvis authenticity guests will change the channel on the tvs by casually shooting the screen with a 22 caliber handgun. Youre too young to get it. Elvis used to shoot the tvs. Stay tuned to nbc this morning for meet the press. Chuck todd joined by democratic Vice President ial nominee tim kaine. Thank you. Thank you.
