It’s our last trip to Sun Life Stadium but there are no tears. Marlin fans deserve better and next April they’ll get their state of the art ball park. Dave Matejczyk takes us to baseball heaven – the Dominican Republic. Sam Zygner talks about his beloved Marlins and we listen to the late great, Clarence Clemons (1942 – 2011) as he plays opening day for the Marlins. Our PhD Committee leaves some luggage behind since we’ll be back next April. Next stop, Houston.
