Game 5 of the 2008 World Series between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Philadelphia Phillies was suspended last night due to rain and atrocious field conditions. The game was canceled in the sixth inning with large puddles forming around the field and even at home plate. The game was turning out to be crucial for the Rays, considering they are down 3-1 in the series and facing a series ending game. Dominican Carlos Pena tied the game at 2-2 before the game was suspended, giving the Rays a glimmer of hope as the game resumes in Philadelphia. MLB commissioner Bud Selig says they will wait until Thanksgiving if need be in order to resume the game. He added that they would never preemptively give a victory to a team due to weather.
