Reviewing the 2008 World Series Program

There is no doubt that the story lines for this year’s World Series were endless as the Phillies, a historic baseball franchise, were heading back to the Series to try to end a quarter century drought, and the Rays, who had never even had a winning season in their history, faced off. As one can […]

Reviewing the 2008 All Star Game Program
