After posting a record of 22-6 in the month of May and 21-5 in the month of August, the Tampa Bay Rays are the first organization to have two calendar months with at least 21 wins in the same season since the 2002 “Moneyball” Oakland Athletics. With just over a month left to go in the 2021 season, the Rays sit with a comfortable eight-game lead at the top of the American League East.
