World Series Game #1: Philadelphia Phillies vs. Tampa Bay Rays

By Russ Oates

MLB World Series blog coverage on SB Nation

Ah, the World Series. Just a year ago we were in a Purple Haze, looking for the Rockies to continue their winning ways against the Sawx. But neither team made it back to the World Series in 2008.

So this year we have the Philadelphia Phillies and the Tampa Bay Rays. Maybe the Rays can do what the Rockies didn't: win the Series.

Go Rays!
