    FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
    » December 15, 1997: The Marlins trade ace Kevin Brown to the Padres for 1B Derrek Lee and pitchers Rafael Medina and Steve Hoff. In the next two days the Fish send P Dennis Cook to the Mets for OF Fletcher Bates and P Scott Comer, and trade IF Kurt Abbott to the Athletics in exchange for P Eric Ludwick.

    » August 26, 1998: Florida's Derrek Lee, Kevin Orie, and Cliff Floyd hit consecutive home runs in the 9th inning of a game with St. Louis. The Marlins, who were trailing 6–0 at the time, go on to tie the game with six runs, then win, 7–6, with a run in the 10th. Mark McGwire hits home run #54 for the Cards.

    » July 3, 2000: The Marlins defeat the Mets, 2-0 on Derrek Lee's 2-run homer in the 9th, off Turk Wendell. Jesus Sanchez, 0–6 versus NY, is the winner. The loss ends C Mike Piazza's streak of 15 consecutive games with an RBI, two short of the major league mark.

    » July 24, 2002: Damian Moss allows only a single safety in seven innings as the Braves hold the Marlins to that one hit in a 10–0 victory. Derrek Lee's leadoff single in the 5th inning is Florida's only hit.

    » September 2, 2002: Braden Looper (1–5) in his 66th relief appearance of the year, extends the Mets home losing streak to 15 in the 12–inning first game of a doubleheader. Florida wins 3–2. Preston Wilson ties the game in the 9th with a home run, and Juan Encarnacion wins it with an RBI double. The Mets take the nitecap, 11–5, overcoming back-to-back home runs in the 2nd by Derrek Lee and Mike Lowell. Mike Piazza drills a pinch 3-run home run. The win snaps the Mets home loss streak at 15 games, a National League record set the 1911 Braves. They last won at home on July 31.
