The Miami marlins began life as a MLB franchise in 1993 in the fourth round (out of five) of the expansion of major leagues. The interleague in the regular season started in 1997, and since then, the Marlins – who were called the Marlins of Florida until 2012 – had faced the most emblematic and winning team of MLB, the New York Yankees, 46 times.
Unsurprisingly, the Marlins had a losing record for the two team weekend match, dropping 24 and winning 22 against the Bronx Bombers. But at no time in the history of the two teams, if the Florida / Miami franchise swept a series of three games from the 27 World Series champions.
So far.

The Yankees, who went from an advance of seven games from the American League East on May 28 to 3, 1/2 game before Friday, seemed to straighten the ship, taking the last three games of a series of four games against their divisional rivals, the Rays of Tampa Bay, before arriving in Miami.
But their momentum came out directly through the window while the Marlins captured the three competitions for the first scan of the Yankees in the history of the two teams.

As if the unprecedented scan was not a humiliation enough for the champions in title of the AL, the three victories increased the head of the Marlins against New York to 25-24-which makes them incredibly, the only baseball team with a record of all time against the Yankees.
The most famous Victory of the Marlins over the Yankees occurred in 2003 World Series, when the Florida team of the oppressed, led by right -wing AS Josh Beckett, beat New York 4-2 to take the second championship in seven years for the franchise – which has not won since, and only appeared in eliminatory series twice in the past 21 years.
While the marlins celebrated, the Yankees tried to give meaning to their descending spiral.
The three -game series was highlighted, or at low light, by a defeat on Friday evening 13-12 which has marked the first game since August 12, 1973 – almost exactly 52 years earlier – in which the Yankees scored 12 points and lost anyway.
After the scanning, the recipient of the Yankees and the shattering designated Ben Rice told journalists: “I would not say that there is concern, but I would say that I think that a little sense of emergency would be good for us”, as quoted by the athletic writer Chris Kirschner.
But Kirschner continued by noting that an “feeling of emergency” is exactly what the Yankees did not display during their two months of mediocrity, in which they compiled a sorry file of 25-32 since the management of their division by seven games.

“They tend to operate with an attitude of a faire that begins with manager Aaron Boone,” wrote Kirschner. “Since the captain of the Aaron Judge team said they would hit a hot sequence, they have 4-6. Since the Yankees lost two of the three against the Los Angeles dodgers on June 1, they are 24-30, a worse record than the pirates and the athletics of Chicago White Sox, Pittsburgh and during this period.”
Boone, in his statements after Sunday’s match, said his confidence that the Yankees would withdraw from the prolonged slump.
“It is certainly not too late for us,” said Boone, quoted by ESPN. “I am convinced that we are going to bring him together. But that’s all that is, you know, it’s empty until we started to do it.”
With such large Yankees to obtain previous eras that Derek Jet and Alex Rodriguez criticizing the team on national television, Boone may wonder if his work is safe. There was certainly no shortage of calls for the eighth year manager to be replaced, or at least to take a greater “responsibility” for the long and embarrassing team of the team.
