Miami Marlins Fish Flash 5/10

Morning Marlin Maniacs, hope you’re having a terrific Tuesday. And no, we do not only write after wins.

But until such time as fan blogging outpays teaching, expect intermittent blips in coverage during college exam times. Also, so sickening was that series loss this weekend, it’s actually inspired an entire article.

However, the Marlins got back to their winning ways Monday night, pushing their record to 17-14 on the season. Which brings us to our Fish Flash, chock full of feel good pieces that lend you plenty of cause for hope going forward. Let’s dive in.

The club’s beat reporter takes you through the timetable to expect, and also opens the door to speculation on what Saturday’s double-header might hold in store.

Home Run? Just Kidding, J.T.

Due to crazy amounts of grading, might not get the Stat Wrap out for this one. As such, our last piece gives the Miami Herald’s Clark Spencer a chance to take you through one of the most bizarre things I’ve ever seen in a baseball game. And I was in pretty good company. By all means watch the video, but Spencer adds some really interesting history on just how rare what you just saw is, outside of elementary school kickball games.
