Tampa Bay Rays clinch 2021 postseason berth

The Tampa Bay Rays have clinched a berth in Major League Baseball’s postseason for a third consecutive season, the longest such streak in franchise history, and an accomplishment not every franchise can boast:

In a few innings, the Rays will likely clinch a playoff berth for the third year in a row. Teams that have never made the playoffs three years in a row:
Mets
Marlins
Expos/Nationals
Reds
Padres
Diamondbacks
Rockies
White Sox

The Rays are the first American League team and fourth major league team to clinch a trip to the 2021 postseason, following the San Francisco Giants, Los Angeles Dodgers and Milwaukee Brewers.
