The Rays started the season with 13 consecutive wins, tying the 1982 Atlanta Braves and the 1987 Milwaukee Brewers for the modern era (post-1900) record, and the most since the 1884 St. Louis Maroons, before suffering their first loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on April 14.

[1] The Rays drew a total attendance of 1,440,301 to home games at Tropicana Field — a 27.6% increase from the previous season but still only 27th of the 30 MLB teams.

[4] However, they were defeated by the eventual World Series champion Texas Rangers in the ALWCS in a two-game sweep.
