The Phillies aren't quite the National League champs yet, but they're up 2-0 over the Arizona Diamondbacks in the NL Championship Series.

The next game is at 5:07 p.m. at Chase Field in Phoenix. Fans are flocking to Arizona for dirt-cheap tickets.

Queen was visiting Philadelphia as part of its Rhapsody Tour.
