Brrr: Boys of Summer Brace for Winter

Phillies, Rays will resume Game 5 amid freezing wind chill

Share

(Newser) – Baseball weather, it's not. When the World Series resumes tonight in Philly, the forecast calls for temperatures in the 30s and a wind chill below freezing, MSNBC reports. The Phillies and Rays will pick up where Monday's night's Game 5 left off: tied at 2 in the bottom of the sixth. The Phillies, 28 years without a title, lead the Series 3-1. If Tampa Bay pulls through tonight, game six will be in balmy Florida.
