With the series tied at one game each, and Philly leading game 3 in the 5th by a score of 2-1, anyone want to make any guesses as to how many games the series goes or who wins?

If the Phillies hold on to win tonight...

Phillies in 6.

If TB comes back to win...

TB in 7.

Heck of a tight game. Phillies won in the bottom of the 9th.

This series has been so tight that I think it goes 7 games.

Philly is showing a lot more intestinal fortitude than a lot of people expected.

So, who does everyone want to win?

I'm rooting for the Phillies, but I think there's a couple of you guys that want the Rays to go all the way. I won't cry if they do, but I hope it's a one time thing!

I'd say I'm marginally rooting for the Phillies, but I don't honestly care. I just want to see some good baseball. We haven't had a World Series go 6 games since 2003, and that needs to change.

I can't get BOTH teams to lose, and I despise Philadelphia less than Tampa, so I'm pulling for the Phils. The Rays are a fine story, to be sure, but they are also a bunch of punks, and I cannot stand them.

Either way, I feel like I'm watching a bunch of imposters on my TV! Where, oh where are my beloved Yankees? :-(

At least these guys are putting on a good series. A heck of a lot better than that farce last year.

There was a World Series last year? Huh, I don't remember it. I wonder why?

Phillies are one win away from ending this thing. I really thought that this would go at least 6. Now I'm not so sure. The Rays took 3 games to put Boston away. I don't see how they could rally to bring this back to a 7th game, or even a 6th. But stranger things have happened.

I want the Phillies to win. I just can't stomach the Rays winning. I had to cheer for them to beat Boston, but I cheer for them no longer. I guess I wasn't really rooting for them, but rather against the S*x?

So much for the theory of too much rest. Phillies are up 3-1 after getting 7 days off.

Im pulling for the Phillies.
I cant bear to see the upstart teams winning it all. It doesnt feel right.
Phillies have been around for 100+ years and only have 1 title.. so I hope they finish the Rays off.

With Cole Hamels going tonight, this may be over in a matter of hours.

Well, courtesy of the rain we have the first postponement ever in World Series history. Tied 2-2, when they start again, I don't think Cole will be pitching. Advantage to the Rays and may help this series go a little longer.
