The Philadelphia Phillies are just one win away from punching their ticket to a second consecutive World Series.
Game 6 of the NCLS between the Phillies and the Arizona Diamondbacks is tonight, October 23, and a win will see the Phillies advance to the World Series.
If the Diamondbacks win tonight, it’ll force a Game 7 tentatively scheduled for tomorrow night.
The Phillies played in last year’s World Series, falling to the Houston Astros (who are also playing for a World Series berth tonight in a Game 7 against the Texas Rangers) in six games.
While the entire city of Philly is hoping for a series-ending win tonight, elsewhere people may be a little more cautious — be it just coincidence or something completely related, but every time the Phillies have won the World Series (the last time being in 2009), the stock market crashed soon after.
