Boston, Philadelphia Set to Face Off Once Again in a Battle for Sports Supremacy

Two of the best sports cities in America will do battle again this weekend, with the Red Sox and Phillies set to meet, all while the Celtics and 76ers continue their playoff series.

While hockey fans in both cities might feel a little left out after disappointing exits for both the Bruins and Flyers, there's no denying that it will be an interesting weekend, starting with Friday night when two games will be played in Philadelphia right down the road from each other.
