Owen Caissie gives Marlins franchise history not done since 2009

1 hour ago 3

The Miami Marlins turned back the clocks on Sunday. They wore the teal that was their uniform scheme when they were known as the Florida Marlins.

And they turned back the clock in another way, too. For the first time since 2009, they're 3-0.

Sure, it was an opening series against the lowly Colorado Rockies, but all you can do is win against the team across from you, and that's what the Marlins did.

It took some extra work on Sunday. They were down to their final out when Owen Caissie stepped into the box facing a 3-2 deficit.

With a runner on, though, Caissie launched deep to right field for a home run to walk it off and start some serious Marlins celebrations.

Caissie, known as the Maple Masher, is coming off a strong World Baseball Classic for Team Canada. He appears to have carried that momentum into the season.

The Marlins are hoping this is the version of Caissie they'll have going forward. They made a trade with the Chicago Cubs to bring him aboard, and it's working right now.

He may not have had a spot to play in Chicago, but Miami is able to give Caissie all the playing time he needs to develop.

So far, so good. Caissie looks like a rising star, and he has a walk-off home run to show for it.
