The Tampa Bay Devil Rays began professional play in 1998 as an expansion team. The Devil Rays compete in the East Division of the American League, with the Milwaukee Brewers moving to the National League to make room.
The home stadium of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays is the Tropicano Field. Built to suit any baseball franchise seeking to relocate to the Tampa Bay area, the domed stadium is also host to two other professional sports teams.
With both solid league performances and a relatively young roster, both players and fans are confident of success over the coming seasons.
