CC97 Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 Now I'm fairly certain the D-Rays never ever wore this as a cap or even helmet logo, but it appears on Dressed to the Nine's as their cap and helmet logo for 1998 (I remember this being the original cap logo but replaced prior to 1998).Please someone tell me I remember correctly and that these were never used.Thanks! --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 I do believe remember seeing the hats for the unveiling of the Devil Rays and Diamondbacks in 1995. But don't remember ever seeing them being played Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffelh Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 They did wear them very occasionally in 1998 and 1999. Maybe 5 games a year at most, but I definitely did see them worn in offical games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckguy14 Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 It was an alternate cap with the purple bill only in 1998. It was gone after that year. 2004 San Jose Sharks 7th Man Fan of the Year San Jose Gold Miners - 4x Lombardi Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CC97 Posted November 6, 2004 Author Share Posted November 6, 2004 Really? Does anyone have a pic of this?Here's a poster from the 98 season. Does that count? Well that poster shows me what I already thought, that they wore different caps... but a few others were saying the logo was worn as an alt cap for a few games. --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate15 Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 I may be mistaken but for some reason I remember them wearing that hat at home, and the TB on the road their first year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAD! Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 Oops my mistake. But I'm pretty sure that Tampa Bay wore that in their inaugural season I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC97 Posted November 6, 2004 Author Share Posted November 6, 2004 I'm going to list it as a Unused logo for the time being, I always remember it being unused. If someone can find a pic of it being worn in a TB D-Rays game I'll switch it around. --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Survival79 Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 This is blurry, but proof:I would venture to say that is a picture taken at Tropicana Field.

Survival79 Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 Now that's interesting... is it possible that's a Spring Training or Batting Practice photo?It is possible... but the Devil Rays wore the "RAYS" batting practice caps during the 1999 Spring Training, so this is more than likely a regular season photo.Fred McGriff - March 17, 1999 "If things have gone wrong, I'm talking to myself, and you've got a wet towel wrapped around your head."
