We realize that New York and Boston feel the entire baseball world revolves around their team. Heck, at times even Major League Baseball itself seems to only care about the Yankees and Red Sox.

However, heading into Saturday's games, the Tampa Bay Rays were in first place in the the AL East by three games over Boston and nine ahead of the Yankees.

The Rays are a story that is getting too little attention. Too many people still care more about Alex Rodriguez' marital woes.

Will Tampa hold on? It is hard to say, although be sure that the few fans (okay, very few) who don't care about the Sox or Yanks certainly hope so.
