15-Year Marliniversary: Marlins beat Expos in final game in Montreal

Throughout their 27-year history, the Florida/Miami Marlins have had plenty of memorable moments against a number of teams. On this day 15 years ago, the Marlins did something that no team has done since: win a Major League Baseball game in Montreal.

After easily taking the first two games, the Marlins went for the three-game sweep of the host Montreal Expos on Sept. 29, 2004 in what would be the final game played at Olympic Stadium. The Marlins closed the building with a 9-1 rout.

Fittingly, the starting pitcher that night for the Marlins was Carl Pavano, who was acquired from Montreal in 2002.
