Read Foster's Letter to the Rays
On Friday, Mayor Bill Foster sent a letter to the Tampa Bay Rays saying the team could not seek a stadium site in Tampa.
Last week, St. Pete Mayor Bill Foster sent a letter to the Rays ownership stating it would be a breach of contract if he allowed the Rays to talk with Hillsborough officials about moving the team to Tampa.
He encouraged ownership to continue seek a St. Pete stadium or in the gateway area. Foster said the city will only negotiate with the team for a St. Pete location or in the Gateway area, which is the site of a proposed stadium by CityScape.
