WASHINGTON (AP) - He's a right-leaning New Jersey native with a lifelong love of the Phillies. She's a liberal New Yorker who grew up near Yankee Stadium. They're eying each other warily these days from opposite ends of the Supreme Court bench.
Justices Samuel Alito and Sonia Sotomayor make no secret of their rooting interests in the World Series, though neither would say whether they have a wager on the outcome.
Alito was unusually quiet when the court met Monday. Was he glum over the ninth-inning meltdown by Phillies closer Brad Lidge in the team's loss Sunday night?
