And then there were two
With the Philadelphia Phillies watching and waiting after clinching the National League pennant earlier, the Tampa Bay Devil Rays FINALLY defeated the Boston Red Sox in seven games in the ALCS to lay claim to their first World Series appearance.
The Phillies have to be the World Series favorite with the power they have in their lineup and the pitchers they have in the bullpen.
Ryan Howard, Chase Utley and Pat Burrell combined for more homeruns and runs batted in than any other triple threat in baseball this year and last year's MVP Jimmy Rollins just started getting hot as the regular season winded down.
Did you honestly know more than two players for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays before the playoffs put them in the spotlight and into our living rooms?
C'mon, be honest!
After watching the Rays in the playoffs, it's obvious that they are not a fluke. It looks like they play some serious team ball and can hang with anyone after regaining their composure after losses to Boston in games 5 and 6.
Well, who's it going to be? Share your baseball knowledge and give John Public some predictions. Who will win and why? Who will be the MVP? Strategy? Come on and chime in.
