About one hour into Cleveland Indians ace Corey Kluber's dominant 9-strikeout victory over the Chicago Cubs in Game 1 of the World Series on Tuesday, Dwyane Wade announced the stakes for his awaited Chicago-Cleveland wager with LeBron James.

Here is the Chicago native and now-Chicago Bulls guard's challenge to LeBron:

For anyone who can't play the audio in the office or otherwise: If the Indians lose, James has to wear a Cubs uniform when he and the Cavaliers arrive at the United Center to play the Bulls this season, and vice versa for Wade when the Bulls visit the Cavaliers.

They could have gone a little higher with the stakes, but this is better than your average mayoral wager of bagels or cheese or the like. Plus, we got to see Michael Jordan in a baseball uniform once upon a time, so this will provide an interesting comparison.

World Series Game 2 starts on Wednesday at 7:00 pm ET. (Watch on FOX Sports Go.)
