20-year Marliniversary: Marlins complete sweep of Cubs on Floyd’s pinch-hit walk-off homer

During the 2000 campaign, the Florida Marlins collected nine walk-off wins. That included four walk-off home runs. Two of those that season came off the bat of outfielder Cliff Floyd, including one on this day 20 years ago.

The Marlins were 37-38 and looking to get to .500 as they hosted the Chicago Cubs at Pro Player Stadium for the finale of a three-game set on June 25, 2000. Floyd’s 10th-inning blast lifted the Marlins to an 8-7 victory to complete the sweep.

The contest went back and forth before ending in dramatic fashion.
