And now we humbly bow our heads to the Baseball Gods and beg forgiveness, we doubters, we sinners, we who mocked and ridiculed the cut-rate version of the Florida Marlins fielded this season. With about three dozen games left, the Marlins are well within win-shot of a wild-card playoff berth (and, as this is being written, the team is on a five-game win streak). Oh ye of little faith. Us, too. For the next three nights, at 7:05, the underdogs try to get over on the NL East leading New York Mets, a series key to demonstrating just how good the Marlins may or may not be. Yes, they’ve already far exceeded expectations, but this is Miami, so decent is hardly good enough. Tickets range from $6 to $90. Call 1-877-MARLINS, or visit florida.marlins.mlb.com.
