Considering that Major League Baseball has been around since the 1800s, there are few areas where the Florida/Miami Marlins stand alone. On this day 15 years ago, however, the Marlins did something no team had ever done before nor have since.
Once a dreadful 11-31, the Florida Marlins in 2006 became the first team in history to get back to .500 after falling at least 20 games under. The Marlins did so with a convincing victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, 10-3.
The Marlins were going for the series sweep of the Brewers as they arrived at Miller Park on Sept.
