Tampa Rays face Phillies tonight. World Series baseball is expected to continue tonight in Philadelphia after a second rain-out forced game five’s cancellation. Following a field-drenched suspension of play in the sixth inning on Monday, fans were disappointed to learn that rain continued throughout much of the day in Philadelphia Tuesday. Weather is expected to cooperate tonight for what could be the end of the season if the Phillies win their fourth game in the best-of-seven series. The teams are tied at two runs each as of tonight’s resumed sixth inning.

Kellen Winslow returns his focus to football. Having criticized Cleveland Browns management for showing little concern about him when he was hospitalized for staph, Kellen Winslow says the game is his main focus. The tight end, whose suspension was announced after his comments, but then rescinded, is well. “I’m ready to move on and just play football,” he says. The Browns reportedly learned that a media relations staffer advised Winslow in text messages against revealing his illness. The player says he was trying to protect his teammates.

 The chief for the Harrison police department yesterday rebuked former Knicks coach Isiah Thomas’s story that the medical issue that brought authorities to his Westchester home early Friday morning had to do with his teenage daughter. “My cops … know the difference between a 47-year-old Black male and a young Black female,” Chief David Hall told The Associated Press. “These people should learn something from Richard Nixon – it’s not the crime, it’s the cover-up.” Thomas, 47, a Hall of Fame basketball star with the Detroit Pistons from 1981 to 1994, was stripped of both his team president and head coach titles within a two-week span last April, after the Knicks completed the fifth straight losing season. He was not officially fired and, therefore, is still under contract by the team. Thomas on Friday told The New York Post that his 17-year-old daughter, Lauren, was the one who had a medical issue which prompted police to be called to his home. Officers responded to a 911 call just after midnight at Thomas’ Purchase home, where a 47-year-old male, who police sources said was Thomas, was taken to nearby White Plains Hospital Center. Witnesses told Newsday that the man had his face covered and refused to give his name. “It wasn’t his daughter,” Hall said yesterday. Police classified the case as “an accidental drug overdose” and reports said it involved sleeping pills.

Cleveland tight end to miss one game without pay. The NFL tight end who recently missed three days with his team due to illness will miss another day on the field for talking about it. Cleveland suspended Kellen Winslow Jr. for one game without pay after he criticized the Browns for their handling of media when he was hospitalized for a staph infection. Winslow complained that the team asked him to conceal his infection, despite the fact that six cases of staph have hit the Browns in recent years. He also said he’d been treated like “a piece of meat,” rather than shown concern with a hospital visit from the team’s general manager.  The GM Phil Savage responded by having Winslow benched, saying: “His statements brought unjustified negative attention to our organization, and violated the ‘team first’ concept of our football squad.” Winslow can’t rejoin the team until next week and will miss $235,294.
