Game Day Approaching: Phillies Marlins Tickets Released

The upcoming Philadelphia Phillies vs Miami Marlins game features two of the most exciting teams in Major League Baseball. One of the two franchises hails from Philadelphia whereas the other calls Miami home. Both have faced and defeated numerous teams on the field, often taking down opponents perceived to be mightier than them. Both have seen their players inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame and win a number of awards, making their game a must see live with Philadelphia Phillies vs Miami Marlins tickets in hand.

The Philadelphia Phillies were founded in 1883 and are members of the East Division of the National League. Their official colors are blue, red and white. The Phillies, nicknamed the Phils and the Fightin, play at the Citizens Bank Park and have been doing so since 2004. The two-time World Series champions have also won seven National League Pennants, the last two of which were won in 2008 and 2009. The Phillies have also won eleven East Division titles, of which five were won consecutively from 2007 to 2011. The franchise's owners are David Montgomery, Bill Giles, William C. Buck and John S. Middleton. Ryne Sandberg is the team's manager with Ruben Amaro as the general manager.

The Phillies are based in South Philadelphia and have won five division titles consecutively. They have one of the hottest rivalries in the National League, with the New York Mets. This rivalry has intensified recently during the playoffs, division games and wild card races. Historically, they have had rivalries with the Philadelphia Athletics, celebrated in the City Series, and also with the Pittsburgh Pirates that was considered by many as one of the greatest rivalries in the National League during the late nineteenth and twentieth century. Phillies players have won MVP Awards, as well as Cy Young Awards, with one player winning four of them.

At the Philadelphia Phillies vs Miami Marlins game, the Phillies  will be up against one of the youngest franchises in Major League Baseball. The Miami Marlins, founded in 1993, are also members of the East Division of the National League. Their official colors are yellow, black, silver, orange, white and blue. Until 2012, they were known as the Florida Marlins and played at the Sun Life Stadium. In 2012, they became the Miami Marlins and now play at the Marlins Park. They have also won two World Series titles, a mind blowing achievement considering their age. The first was, quite amazingly, won just four years after they entered the MLB in 1997. The second was won in 2003.

The Marlins have won two National League pennants and two wild card berths, to boot. They are owned by Jeffrey Loria with Mike Redmond as the manager and Dan Jennings as the general manager. Catch them live at this game after ordering Philadelphia Phillies vs Miami Marlins tickets.
