  Share your thoughts in the comments!The baseball has been less than good this month, so Rays fans definitely deserved a day of unbridled joy. It came on Monday when the team unveiled their long-awaited City Connect uniforms. The uniforms and branding lean heavily into the area’s skateboarding culture and makes great use of those classic Devil Rays colors. On this week’s episode of Rays Your Voice, we put the baseball on the back burner and break down why these new unis might have a

• Rays 1 Brewers 0: Pepiot near perfect, and we needed that

  30-04-2024 04:30 via draysbay.com
  
  Jeff Hanisch-USA TODAY Sports It’s a sign of how poorly the Rays offense has been going that when they loaded the bases in the first inning with no one out (on a hit batter and two walks — Brewers pitcher Bryce Wilson struggled to get anything over the plate) I just assumed they wouldn’t score. They did, but in the most depressing of ways: a double play that got a run in but pretty much killed any chance at a real rally.And...that one run was all the scoring we’d get.The

  All hail the SkyRay! There might not be a more recognizable landmark in the Tampa Bay area than the Sunshine Skyway Bridge.The enormous bridge spans the bay between St. Petersburg and Bradenton. When it was completed in 1987, it was one of the largest bridges in the world and to date, it is the longest cable-stayed concrete bridge on the planet.

  Rays put the SKATE in skateboarding with this new jersey concept. Tampa Bay is widely celebrated for many things — pristine beaches, excellent cigars, Cuban sandwiches — but when the average person thinks of the Tampa Bay area, skateboarding isn’t something that would typically come to mind.And the Tampa Bay rays are here to educate you on that point.

  A brief history of the men in black. Over the past few years, the Tamp Bay Rays have been celebrating their colorful history. Having been in existence now for over a quarter of a century, the Rays are able to look back on their atrocious, albeit formative, first years with joy and have been paying homage to their past incarnations.
  Following the 2000 season, the team’s original uniforms were haphazardly stuffed in dingy boxes in the darkest corners of the confines of Tropicana Field, the

  The Rays honor Tampa Bay’s culture and history with a nod to the black road jerseys from the team’s debut season with the their skateboarding themed “Grit x Glow” City Connect. If you could tell one story about Tampa Bay, what would it be?
  It would have been easy to default to what a beautiful place it is to live, the beaches and the sun and resort atmosphere that appeals to so many tourists who visit. But the Rays standard jersey concept already encapsulates that bright

  David Banks-USA TODAY Sports Tampa Bay Rays fall to three games below .500 after getting swept by Chicago White Sox.After 28 games into the season, one team is not supposed to provide half the wins for another. Yet, that is where we find ourselves after the Chicago White Sox completed the three-game sweep of the Tampa Bay Rays with a 4-2 win for their sixth win in 2024.
  This Rays team is talented but, once again, did not take advantage of opportunities going 0-for-6 with runners in scoring posit

On a cold and windy night in Chicago, the Tampa Bay Rays lost to the worst team in Major League Baseball for a second consecutive night.

On a cold, rainy, and blustery day, the Rays would fall to the three-win White Sox on a nationally televised game, carried by Apple TV+.The field was surprisingly playable, as the grounds crew was literally sweeping buckets of water with rubber brooms, and it was playball when the sun peaked through just before game time, but the elements would strike here and there, like when Caballero feet slid out from under

  Nathan Ray Seebeck-USA TODAY Sports Now time to enjoy an off day. Things could certainly have gone better for the Rays with the Tigers in town. The three-game series saw plenty of low-scoring efforts from the Rays, meanwhile the Tigers were raking up the hits.
