For the fifth time in six seasons, the Chicago Cubs will take part in postseason baseball.
The feeling of October baseball is one many associated with the Chicago Cubs have grown accustomed to in recent years. Still, the same cannot be said for the team awaiting them in the first round–the Miami Marlins.
Since they first came into the league in 1993, this year marks just the third time in franchise history the Marlins have reached the postseason. Miami qualified as a playoff team by winning the Wild Card in 1997 and 2003, where they would eventually go on to become World Series Champions in each year.
