Saw a Marlins game when we visited our son after he just moved down there. Beautiful stadium, great food, even garage parking across the street! (We’re used to Phillies games where you have to walk miles from the sea of parking lots.) Shame they can’t seem to get the baseball part together.

I thought that one of the complaints with the stadium was that there wasn't enough parking nearby.

I reserved a space in the parking garage when I bought the tickets online that day. Easy peasy. Good food too. The pitcher that game was the guy that was killed in the boating accident.

He was quite possibly a future Cy Young winner. His passing was a real downward turning point for the Marlins.
