PHILADELPHIA: The World Series was heading into its decisive final moments on Wednesday in a unique, three-inning showdown with the score tied at 2-2 after Monday's Game Five suspension due to heavy rain.
The Philadelphia Phillies are one win away from capturing their first Fall Classic crown in 28 years, holding a 3-1 lead over the Tampa Bay Rays in the best-of-seven series. More rain washed out hopes of finishing the game on Tuesday.
Philadelphia Manager Charlie Manuel and Rays manager Joe Maddon on Tuesday both tried to spin the bizarre development as an advantage for their teams.
