Phillies :: World Championship Winners!!

A big day in history for Philadelphia! Wednesday, October 29, 2008, the Phillies won the World Championships against the Devil Rays.



In case you have no idea what all that means (as I did), the Phillies are Philadelphia's Pro. Baseball team. The Devil Rays are from Tampa Bay, FL. The Phillies have not been in the Championships since 1993 when they lost against the Toronto Blue Jays. The last time they won the championship was in 1980.



Since 1983, Philadelphia has had all four teams (baseball, football, basketball or hockey) in the championships, but with no wins. So this is huge for all of Philadelphia to finally win after 25 years.

Congratulations Phillies!!
