Marlins selling no-no tickets, but so do others
Steve Mitchell-USA TODAY SportsThe Rays went about things a bit differently in 2010, as they gave away unsold tickets to Matt Garza’s no-hitter as part of a ticket package that went towards a Joe Maddon fundraiser -- it was part of a larger reward that also allowed fans to attend a game in the present while also attending a reception with Maddon afterward. Then, as said, there were the Mets last summer. The Marlins are once again selling tickets at face value for the game that’s already occurred, but at least this time around, they’re attempting to make a profit off of their own player. It’s progress!
