Rays Honor Longoria With Ceremony | Seattle Mariners News
Description
The Seattle Mariners vs. Tampa Bay Rays game got delayed to honor franchise legend Evan Longoria, whose number 3 jersey was set to be retired and who was inducted into the Rays’ Hall of Fame. The ceremony, which ran longer than expected, pushed the game back 20 minutes — but fans were treated to a special day with classic uniforms, a commemorative statue, and free Longoria snapback hats for the first 10,000 fans. Longoria’s decade with the Rays included 261 home runs, multiple All-Star appearances, and Gold Gloves — and the team’s president called his impact “transformative.” It was a heartfelt tribute to a true icon, blending celebration of the past with the excitement of the game ahead.
