Don’t ask the Florida Marlins to win a National League East Division
championship—they don’t need it. Twice in seven years, the Marlins
scraped into the Wild-Card playoff spot and plowed their way to World
Series victories. While 2004 did not produce a Wild Card position, no
one is counting the Marlins out for 2005, with their addition of first
baseman Carlos Delgado and pitcher Al Leiter bolstering the roster. With
the possibility of a playoff berth in mind, fans are still going after
Marlins tickets. |

-
The Florida Marlins are a
professional baseball team and one of five teams in the East Division of the
National League (NL). Named for a large fish that inhabits the waters bordering
Florida, the Marlins play at Pro Player Stadium in Miami, Florida.
-
On June 10, 1991, the National League awarded a franchise to H. Wayne Huizenga,
chief executive officer of Blockbuster Entertainment Corporation, owner of the
Miami Dolphins football team, and chairman of the board of the Florida Panthers
hockey team. The Marlins’ first manager was Rene Lachemann, a former catcher who
had previously managed the Seattle Mariners and Milwaukee Brewers. Lachemann
kept Florida out of the Eastern Division cellar during the 1993 season, as the
team finished the year five games ahead of the last-place New York Mets. After
the Marlins finished last in their division in 1994 and fourth in 1995,
Lachemann was replaced as manager midway through the 1996 season with the
Marlins’ director of player development, John Boles.

In 1997, Marlin pitchers Kevin
Brown, Alex Fernandez, Livan Hernandez, and Al Leiter combined for 53 of the
club’s 92 regular-season victories and led the club to the NL Wild Card berth.
The club then defeated the San Francisco Giants and the Atlanta Braves in the NL
playoffs before besting the Cleveland Indians for the World Series championship,
4 games to 3. By capturing the title in the franchise’s fifth season, the
Marlins became the fastest expansion team ever to win a World Series crown.
-
Following the World Series
victory, Huizenga dismantled the team by trading off many of the club’s most
talented players. Among them, Moises Alou was traded to the Houston Astros,
Bobby Bonilla was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers, and Kevin Brown was traded
to the San Diego Padres. The Marlins’ record in 1998 slumped to 54-108, making
them the first club ever to win a World Series and then lose more than 100 games
during the following season. Leyland resigned as manager in October 1998, and
Huizenga sold the club to businessman John Henry during the off-season.
