Can’t afford to fly to Philadelphia for the final games of the World Series?

No need to be gloomy.

Tampa officials have permission from Major League Baseball to telecast Games 4 and 5 at Cotanchobee Fort Brooke Park. The games, which will be played in Philadelphia, will be shown on a 40-foot wide screen television in the park beginning at 8 p.m. Sunday and, if necessary, Monday.

The park is at 601 St. Pete Times Forum Drive. Admission will be free, and parking will be available at the South Regional garage for $5.

Low-back folding chairs, blankets and coolers are welcome.

Sorry, folks, no alcohol allowed.
