Formerly called the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, The "Rays" were a disappointing Major League Baseball franchise until 2008, when manager Joe Maddon and his baseball team with many young players suprised the whole league by clinching a spot in the 2008 Playoffs. They were better than their popular division rivals Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees. The Rays are 2008 American League Champions.
