Auction-winning kids take team picture with Rays

If you look closely at this year's Rays team photo, you might notice two unfamiliar, tiny faces. They belong to Vivek and Ravi Kilak -- the winners of a Stand Up 2 Cancer charity auction held during last year's MLB Winter Meetings on MLB.com.

John Kilak, Vivek and Ravi's father, successfully bid on the chance to have his sons be part of the annual team photo for the Rays, and the family was on hand for Saturday's shoot at Tropicana Field.

After the usual team photo was taken, Vivek and Ravi hopped into the arms of manager Joe Maddon and bench coach Dave Martinez and smiled for the camera. They got to sit next to Fernando Rodney, who reportedly snuck a magic plantain into the photo as well.

When asked what plans he had for use of the unique team photo featuring his kids, John replied that he'd send it to everyone he knew and was even thinking about making it a more permanent memory by using it for a "back tattoo." Ryan "Tatman" Roberts approves.
