Miami's Major League Baseball team competed in the 2015 World Series against the Chicago Cubs, who swept Miami in five games. The team's nickname is not mentioned, only referred to simply as "Miami." However, the team logo depicts a baseball-playing alligator.
Miami's team is presumably an American League team, having played against the National League's Chicago Cubs in the World Series. However, this may not necessarily be true, as Major League Baseball may have undergone some sort of restructuring by 2015, as evidenced by the contemporary World Series being a best-of-nine series instead of a best-of-seven.
Behind the scenes
- As Miami did not have a Major League Baseball team in 1985, Back to the Future Part II correctly predicted that the city would host a team by 2015. In 1991, Major League Baseball awarded a Miami-based National League franchise to owner Wayne Huizenga. This team, the Florida Marlins, began play at Joe Robbie Stadium in Miami Gardens in 1993. In 2012, the Marlins will move to a stadium within Miami city limits and change their name to Miami Marlins. However, as both Miami and the Chicago Cubs play in the National League, any chance of the two teams meeting in the 2015 World Series is an impossibility.
