PHILADELPHIA (AP) - A lawyer for a Philadelphia woman charged with offering sex for World Series tickets says she is "a nice lady overcome with Phillies fever."
Lawyer William J. Brennan says Susan Finkelstein might have dropped double entendres in her Craigslist ad but never explicitly offered sex.
Brennan says the 43-year-old University of Pennsylvania graduate student wanted to take her husband to a game between her beloved Philadelphia Phillies and the New York Yankees.
Brennan says the self-described "buxom blonde" was trying to score tickets online, as she had in the past.
Finkelstein was arrested Tuesday after meeting at a suburban bar with an undercover police officer responding to the ad.
Brennan says he hopes to get the charges dismissed.
