Former astronaut Terry Virtstweeted the photo Thursday showing the view of Cleveland and Chicago from outer space.

Virts wrote, “What an awesome #WorldSeries this year. #Cleveland and #Chicago looked so close to each other from space.”

After losing the first game, the Cubs evened the series in Game 2 Wednesday with a 5-1 victory at Cleveland’s Progressive Field.

Game 3 is Friday night in Chicago when Cubs pitcher Kyle Hendricks takes on Josh Tomlin. It will be the first time in 71 years that Chicago hosts a World Series game at Wrigley Field.
