The Florida Marlins shocked the sports world in 1997 when they became the youngest expansion team to win a World Series, but then floundered as their star players were sold off by former owner Wayne Huizenga. As long as the rebuilding process continues and the Marlins continue to struggle, tickets are easy to come by. If you're interested in catching a game, be warned: The summer heat in Miami can be unbearable, even in the evenings.
Home games are held at the Pro Player Stadium, 2267 NW 199th St., North Miami Beach (tel. 305/626-7426). Tickets range from $4 to $50. Box office hours are Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 6pm, Saturday from 8:30am to 4pm, and before games; tickets are also available through Ticketmaster. The team currently holds spring training in Melbourne, FL.
