Over Miami
How the 2003 Marlins Shocked the World
(Hardcover)
Nobody gave them a chance.
The experts said their manager was too old, their pitching was too young,
and their ownership was too frugal to compete against experienced opponents
with deeper pockets. What rivals did not realize, however, was that the
Florida Marlins were making the most of their march toward the Emerald
City. Like the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion, the team coupled heart and
courage to survive what seemed like insurmountable obstacles, clinching
the National League wild card with just two games left to play. In the
playoffs, Florida again fooled the forecasters. After spotting one- and
two-game leads against the Giants and Cubs, the Marlins battled back in
both series to beat the odds and grab the second pennant in team history.
Winning the World Series, especially against an experienced Yankees club
whose payroll was more than three times the size of Florida's, was just
another David versus Goliath triumph for the Little Teal Machine. Bunt
hits, speed on the bases, timely hitting, solid defense, and potent pitching
proved to get the better of Goliath in the end.

Baseball
in Florida
by Kevin M. McCarthy
In Florida you can see major
league baseball form April through September in Miami and Tampa Bay, spring
training games throughout central Florida in March, minor leagues ball
in the spring and fall at over a dozen Florida sites, college baseball
throughout the spring in dozens of towns, and high school and organized
youth leagues throughout the year in hundreds of towns all over the state.
More than a million fans
a year attend the minor league games of the Florida State League in hopes
of seeing the next Al Lopez, Stan Musial, or Early Wynn, just a few of
the ball players who played here and then went on to make the Hall of Fame.
