Tampa Bay Rays Patches

Tampa Bay Rays Embroidered Patches

The Rays joined the league in 1998, making them one of the newer franchises, and that shows in the patch designs, most lean modern rather than vintage. Navy, light blue, and yellow are the team’s colors, a mix you don’t see much elsewhere in baseball, and the sunburst logo, a glowing yellow sun outlined in navy, is the mark most people recognize first.

Before the rebrand, the team was the Devil Rays, and a few throwback patches in this lineup still nod to that earlier name and look, for anyone who remembers the franchise’s first decade rather than the current era.

There’s also a straightforward “TB” letter patch, simpler than the sunburst and easier to fit on a small item like a cap, plus a script version spelling out “Rays” for anyone who prefers text.

Every tampa bay rays iron-on patch here is embroidered instead of printed, so the sunburst’s rays and any lettering keep sharp edges instead of fading after a wash or two. Backing comes in iron-on, sew-on, or Velcro, depending on whether the patch is staying on one jacket or moving between a cap, a bag, and a jersey over time.
