Selig got bailed out when the Rays scored to tie it up. I wonder what would've happened if the score had been different? Say the Phillies were up 5-1 when the deluge came. Wouldn't the case have been much more persuasive for calling the game? Better solution: shorten the season so that October is really just the WS, not three rounds of playoffs.

Imagine that, Philly would lead 3.5-1.5. The Rays take the last two and we have our first ever tie for the WS! Then they could bump the title over to next season like a skins' game and declare the 2009 WS Champion the back-to-back champ! Or with the tie, Selig could have next year's All-Star game determine who wins this year's WS! That's really making the All-Star game worth something! I’m surprised Bud Selig did not call it a tie.
