ATLANTA — Year six of Marlins Park promises to be eventful. Miami will be hosting the World Baseball Classic in March, the All-Star Game in July, and the Marlins’ home opener will be on April 11 against the Braves.

Major League Baseball announced its entire 2017 schedule on Wednesday, and the Marlins will start their season off at Washington on April 3 at Nationals Park. It’s also a special year because it marks the 20th anniversary of Miami’s 1997 World Series championship.

The Marlins have made great strides in 2016, and are winding the year down with an outside chance at reaching the playoffs. What this year has done is solidify the foundation of what should be a contending team in 2017.

Manager Don Mattingly will be entering his second season at the helm, and the club will open on the road with three games at Washington, followed by April 7-9 at the Mets.
