Two days after Philadelphia and Tampa Bay were suspended after 5½ innings because of rain with the score 2-2, the game was set to resume at 8:37 p.m. Wednesday, baseball spokesman Rich Levin said.

The game time temperature was forecast to be about 40 degrees -- with a wind chill about 10 degrees colder.

Anybody dumb enough to bet the Obamassiah Worship does not extend past the Great One's time allotment into the pregame hype -- for the benefit of anyone who may of missed his performance?

I think I’ll skip both and watch a “Sanford and Son” re-run. I just love it when he clutches his chest and says, “I’m comin’ Weezie!”

I'd probably take some of that action. I don't know this (I'm sure others do) but I'd guess The One has taped the entire presentation, lest he do it live and let slip with his plans for re-education camps and nationalization of all assets.

He's a bad guy, but he's not stupid.

There could be 3 feet of snow on the field tonight and they’ll still play the game, just so The ONE gets his audience.

The world series is nothing but a joke on sporting competion and an ongoing effort by MLB to make more money
Baseball in 10 degree windchills with swirling fall/winter type winds.
What a waste
I’m waiting for the game that requires snowshoes...

A total joke. Who wins the world series in a 2 inning game anyway?

It’s a three inning game, not two. Who will win, the White Sox or Cubs? Oh, that’s right, neither of them made it :)

Baseball leaders gone $ mad. This game started with the Phila allstar shortstop running all over the infield trying to get under a pop fly blowing all over the place with the rain coming down in his face. PS He was charged with an error. Tonight they might get the baseball mixed up with a snowball.

It is all BS.

Yesterday there wasn’t even a drop of rain after 5PM til at least 9PM when I last looked. Why didn’t they play then? Oh that’s right Bud Selig a Democrat supporter wanted to make sure that Obama got his opportunity to speak to PA and FLA sports fans...
