If the Phillies were to beat the Yankees in the World Series to repeat as World Champs, would they also be taking ownership of the city away from the Eagles.
For years the Eagles have been the dominant sports franchise in the city of Philadelphia, but how long will that last with the Phillies making such historic achievements.
The stage is being set as we speak.
The Phillies have a three games to one lead over the Dodgers in their best of seven series which will continue tonight at Citizen’s Bank Park.
The New York Yankees are in a similar situation. They lead the Los Angeles Angels three games to one in their best of seven series.
It looks like the Phils and Yankees are headed for a showdown in the World Series as the Phillies try to become the first National League to repeat as World Champs in three decades.
Phliladelphia sports fans have been longing to take down the Yankees on baseball’s biggest stage.
Would a championship over New York’s most celebrated team, the Yankees, help the Phillies to overtake the Eagles?
You can see how heroics by Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rollins and the rest of the Phils have taken them to another level of stardom.
