Phillies, Rays Hope to Continue Series Tonight

The Philadelphia Phillies will finally--hopefully--be able to attempt to earn the franchise's second World Series championship in its 125-year history and first since 1980 tonight when they resume their series with the Tampa Bay Rays. The weather is still dreary in Philly with strong, heavy winds, but the teams are expected to be able to continue their game that began on Monday night. The one thing we know for certain is that Cole Hamels and Scott Kazmir will not be returning to the mound to restart the game, though Hamels is due up for the Phils in the bottom of the sixth. In all likelihood, we will see a relief pitcher throw the "first pitch" to a pinch hitter in what has been one of the most unique World Series in recent memory.

By the way, did the NBA season really open up last night?
