Here's The Marlins' President Playing Lorne Michaels In A Local Theater Production

Marlins president David Samson is one of those rich guys who likes to do not-rich-guy things in order to show how cool and down to earth he is. He went on Survivor, and in 2014 he starred in a play put on by a local Miami theater called Not Ready For Primetime. The play was about the early days of SNL, and Samson…

Marlins Fan Goes Swimming For Giancarlo Stanton Home Run Ball

Giancarlo Stanton accounted for the first four runs the Marlins scored tonight with a pair of two-run dongers.
