Ray's Baseball
Ray's Baseball is played at Tropicana Field in downtown St Petersburg in an indoor, air conditioned stadium! The 2008 season saw the Tampa Bay Rays post their first winning season, their first AL East championship, and their first pennant (defeating the rival Boston Red Sox), though they lost to the Philadelphia Phillies in that year's World Series. Since then, the Rays have been consistent contenders, gaining postseason berths in 2010, 2011, and 2013. |
Lightning Ice Hockey
Often referred to as the "Bolts," and the nickname is used on their current third jersey. The Lightnings play their home games in the Amalie Arena in Tampa. The Tampa Bay Lightnings have one Stanley Cup championship in their history, (2003-2004 season), and they reached the Stanley Cup Finals in the 2014-2015 season. |
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Buccaneers are the first post-merger expansion team to win a division title, win a playoff game, and to host and play in a conference championship game; all three accomplishments occurred during the 1979 season. They are also the first team since the merger to complete a winning season when starting 10 or more rookies, which happened in the 2010 season. |
