    News
    Carl Crawford has played more games for Tampa Bay than any player in team history, so it was fitting that he delivered the blow that lifted the Rays into uncharted territory. The surging Rays climbed five games over .500 for the first time in the club's 11 seasons, with Crawford hitting a three-run homer, stealing two bases and scoring twice Sunday to pace an 8-5 victory over the Los Angeles Angels. "We feel like we're going to win every game right now," the two-time All-Star said after Tampa Bay stopped Ervin Santana from becoming the AL's first seven-game winner. "We know that's not possible, but we have the confidence to feel that way."
