Over the course of many years and 162-game seasons, bizarre moments are bound to happen.
For the Florida Marlins, a series played under unusual circumstances ended in bizarre fashion on this day 10 years ago. A wild pitch from Marlins’ closer Steve Cishek while trying to issue an intentional walk brought home the winning run as the Seattle Mariners took the game and the series in 10 innings with a 2-1 victory.
The Marlins and Seattle Mariners capped a three-game series in the Pacific Northwest at Safeco Field on June 26, 2011. The series was originally scheduled for South Florida, but a U2 concert forced the teams to change venues.
