In the Hunt

Holy crap, bro, yo no lo puedo creer. Los Marlins are in the wildcard hunt. Like, they’re legitimately playoff contenders. At presstime, the Fish are 3.5 games back in the wildcard race. They’ve won 62 games so far, with 38 more left in the regular season. Don’t let the crummy...

Holy crap, bro, yo no lo puedo creer. Los Marlins are in the wildcard hunt. Like, they’re legitimately playoff contenders. At presstime, the Fish are 3.5 games back in the wildcard race. They’ve won 62 games so far, with 38 more left in the regular season. Don’t let the crummy attendance fool you — the Miami Marlins are well worth the price of admission. Hell, Giancarlo Stanton alone is worth the price of admission. “I think ultimately his numbers are going to speak for him when you talk about what he means to our ball club and the intimidation factor that he brings to other ball clubs,” manager Mike Redmond told Fox Sports at a postgame news conference. “This guy just continues to get big hits.” Watch Stanton take batting practice this week when the Marlins kick off a three-game series against division rivals the New York Mets Monday at 1:10 p.m. Tickets cost $15 to $225 via ticketmaster.com.
