This can't be the World Series that Fox was hoping — no, make that praying — for, can it? One figures the powers that be in Rupert Murdoch's warped world weren't hoping for Tampa Bay and Philadelphia, much preferring Boston and Los Angeles.
So, baseball fans everywhere ... rejoice. We won't be subjected to daily stories about tired subjects like Manny Ramirez and Joe Torre and speculation about how both will be received in Boston.
Instead, maybe America can become a little more familiar with Chase Utley, the most unappreciated player in baseball, and guys like Cole Hamels, Pat Burrell and Jayson Werth on the Phillies' side and the young talent in Tampa Bay that few people had heard of before this season — exciting players like B.J. Upton, Evan Longoria, James Shields, Matt Garza and David Price.
