This just seems so wierd. We have a team in first place (even if it’s still only the start of the season), in the same year that allows us to boast of having both the worst team in football (Dolphins) and basketball (Heat).
The series was the most impressive yet by the Marlins. The team with baseball’s lowest payroll built its improbable NL East lead with the help of a weak early schedule, but there was nothing fluky about the way they swept NL West leader Arizona.
