Florida Marlins Tickets

Debuting along with the Colorado Rockies in 1993, the Florida Marlins were initially known as much for their teal uniforms as the players on the field. Rene Lachemann lead the team, which had little to be excited about the first two or three years. Walt Weiss, Benito Santiago, and Charlie Hough played on that first team.
In 1996 the Marlins won 80 games and in 1997, the Marlins 92 wins were enough to sneak in as a wild card team and after they stunned the Giants and Braves in the NL playoffs, they found themselves in the World Series.

In 2003, the Florida Marlins claimed their second NL pennant and advancing to the World Series, where they defeated the New York Yankees in six games.

Although posting a winning record of 83-79, the Marlins' aspirations of successfully defending their World Series title fell short as they finished nine games behind the Houston Astros for the National League Wild Card title, thus the Marlins became the fourth consecutive major league team not to repeat as World Series champions.

A series of rain-outs in September (due to hurricanes in Florida), the delayed doubleheaders that followed, and losing three key players from the Marlins' previous championship year (Rodríguez, Lee and Urbina) factored in the team's downfall during the season's stretch run. The team was able to retain Jack McKeon as coach for the 2005 season.
