Mayor Todd Gloria invited Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney to a friendly bet as the cities face off in Game 2 of the NLCS.
SAN DIEGO — The National League Championship Series is officially underway in America's Finest City and San Diego's mayor is taking on Philadelphia's mayor with a friendly wager.
Mayor Todd Gloria called out Mayor Jim Kenney on Twitter on Tuesday afternoon ahead of Game 1 of the NLCS, following a long tradition of sports bets between America's mayors.
The bet: the mayor of the team that wins the National League Championship chooses a non-profit for the other mayor to donate to.
