A Tampa Bay/Philly Series may be the WS with the lowest TV ratings of all time. I mean, how many of the fans at tonight’s game are there for Boston, having made the trek all the way from Bean Town or, more likely, from Winter Haven, Sarasota, or Ft. Myers?

Nevertheless, I’d be watching. Not only do I know personally two bona fide Tampa Bay fanatics, plus the Cowbell Kid, but I also have a soft spot for the curmudgeons of the City of Brotherly Love.

Unfortunately, I’ll have to wait until tomorrow to find out whether I’m going to get to be so pleasantly torn, as I don’t think I can stay up for the last two innings. I’m, indeed, a dedicated baseball fan.
