Rays Briefly Homeless After Series Rainout

PHILADELPHIA (AP) ― For a while last night, the Tampa Bay Rays were a team without a place to stay.

They had to scramble for hotel rooms when Game 5 of the World Series was stopped because of bad weather. The game is tied 2-2.

The Rays had booked rooms at the Westin Hotel in downtown Philadelphia only through Monday, planning to be heading back to Tampa today.

But after last night's game was suspended, the Rays found that all the rooms at the Westin were already booked.

After some calls, players had to move to the Hotel du Pont in downtown Wilmington, Delaware, about 25 miles south of Citizens Bank Park.

If the weather permits, Game 5 will resume tonight. The Phillies lead the Series three games to one.
