Phillies beat Rays to win World Series
October 29th, 2008 by admin
The Philadelphia Phillies ended their long wait for a World Series title with a short burst of baseball on Wednesday as they clinched the crown by completing a rain-suspended 4-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.
The Phillies captured their first Fall Classic title since 1980 in a unique, three-inning finish as they resumed Game Five that was suspended in the middle of the sixth on Monday with the score tied 2-2 when the field became unplayable after rain.
