World Series (IN-PLAY!). Tampa Bay Rays @ Philadelphia Phillies. Most players LOB on 10/27?

Settled as Philadelphia leaves more runners on base

http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/ps/y2008/boxscore.jsp?gid=2008_10_27_tbamlb_phimlb_1

Background:

Background: Game Five of the World Series. Phillies lead the series 3-1 and can clinch tonight! Rays need a win to take the series back to Tampa.

While both teams are looking for a big win tonight, it will be important to convert hits in to runs. So, this question is asking which team will leave more runners on base (LOB - Left on Base)?

Game 1 - Tampa 3; Philadelphia 11
Game 2 - Tampa 4; Philadelphia 11
Game 3 - Tampa 4; Philadelphia 6
Game 4 - Tampa 7; Philadelphia 8

Tentative pitchers are:
Rays - Scott Kazmir (12-8; 3.49 era)
Phillies - Cole Hammels (14-10; 3.09 era)

THIS WILL BE AN IN-PLAY MARKET, WHICH WILL SUSPEND DURING THE SEVENTH INNING STRETCH (MIDDLE OF 7TH).

Tampa has done better so far, so starting percentages will reflect this.

Settlement details:As reported by a major mainstream news source.

The game has been officially postponed until tomorrow. For that reason, I'm suspending until we (Admins and SU's) figure out how to best handle these questions and how this change affects current wagers.
Thanks for everyone's patience...guess this is one of the complications of the in-plays.
