Marlins set final game plans at Sun Life Stadium

The Marlins have announced their plans for the final game at Sun Life Stadium, it's JRS, if you ask me. It sounds like a walk down memory lane, which is just fine. That is a lane that should be walked down. But still, who came up with the idea for it to be a mid-week day game? That is just stupid. But par for the course.

The details follow.

The Press Release:

MIAMI- After nineteen seasons, over 1,500 games and two World Series titles, the Marlins and their fans are ready to say goodbye to Sun Life Stadium. The team will be playing its final game as the Florida Marlins on Wednesday, September 28. The Club will evolve into the Miami Marlins on November 11th and officially open the doors to the New Marlins Ballpark in Miami next April.

Closing Day will feature plenty of celebrations and fan entertainment as the Marlins face off against the Washington Nationals. First pitch is scheduled for 4:10 P.M. and the first 10,000 fans get a Miami Marlins 2012 Magnetic Schedule, courtesy of U Health. Throughout the game, fans can win Florida Marlins autographed and game-used memorabilia.

To commemorate the 19 seasons as the Florida Marlins, the Club will host a special post-game on-field ceremony, during which the Florida Marlins All-Time team will be unveiled, as selected by the fans in an online voting campaign. The historic Closing Day will also feature the Top 10 Memories in Florida Marlins history, also voted on by the fans.

Current and former players and coaches will come together to celebrate this great milestone in the history of the franchise. Scheduled attendees include Kurt Abbott, Antonio Alfonseca, Moises Alou, Alex Arias, Bruce Aven, Rickey Bones, Bobby Bonilla, Kevin Brown, Luis Castillo, Greg Colbrunn, Jeff Conine, Reid Cornelius, Andre Dawson, Alex Fernandez, Cliff Floyd, Chris Hammond, Lenny Harris, Bryan Harvey, Livan Hernandez, Charlie Hough, Charles Johnson, Josh Johnson, Rene Lachemann, Al Leiter, Mike Lowell, Josias Manzanillo, Jack McKeon, Robb Nen, Vladimir Nunez, Tony Perez, Mike Piazza, Scott Pose, Hanley Ramirez, Pat Rapp, Ivan Rodriguez, Cookie Rojas, Benito Santiago, Gary Sheffield, Julian Tavarez, Tony Taylor, Michael Tejera and Preston Wilson. (List is subject to change)

Fans can now purchase lower level tickets for just $10. For more information or to purchase Closing Day tickets, fans can log on to www.marlins.com or call 877-MARLINS.

Go if you can. And hope the blast from the past includes a somewhat large Marlins lead with the fans booing because Jack took out a productive hitter and the fans not getting donuts. That would make it complete.

Should be fun.
