Watch the Tampa Bay Rays Battle the Kansas City Royals at the History Center

Rays Head to History Center

 Watch the Tampa Bay Rays battle the Kansas City Royals in Cotanchobee Park in front of the History Center on Friday evening, July 22.

View the game on a huge 16-foot screen in the park or relax with a glass of sangria on the Columbia Cafe's outdoor patio while watching the action on two flat screen TVs. Also, check out the pre- and post-game radio show featuring Rays broadcaster Rich Herrera.

Plus, if you haven't seen the History Center’s latest exhibit Sports in Tampa Bay, featuring the Rays’ 2008 ALCS Trophy and other items from the Bucs and the Lightning, now's your chance. The History Center is staying open late, with extended gallery hours and half-price admission from 5-7:30 p.m.

Enjoy Rays activities and giveaways throughout the evening, plus an appearance by the Rays’ mascot, Raymond. The pre-game radio show starts at 7:30 p.m., and the game’s first pitch is at 8:10 p.m.

Parking will be available at the St. Pete Times Forum East Lot, Channelside Parking Garage or the Channelside Surface Lot.
