No doubt that upon watching the second of Evan Longoria’s homers in Wednesday night’s game, a few baseball fans thought about the 2008 World Series and the possibility of a rematch between the Philadelphia Phillies and Tampa Bay Rays. Most people thought the Phillies had a postseason berth in the bag from the day they signed Cliff Lee, and maybe even more so after their win from behind on Opening Day. The Rays were a different story, as they began the season with six straight losses, ending their regular season in spectacular fashion clutching the AL Wild Card with their final game. So how possible is it that these two end up at the top of their leagues and face off again come late October?
