Sunday was Mother's Day, and all around the game teams and players celebrated Mom in a variety of ways. Players shared memories, some hit homers for their Moms at the game, and all teams wore commemorative jerseys and caps.
In Miami, the Marlins beat the Braves, 3-1, but they may also have "won" the day with a particularly inspired bit of celebration -- incorporating their logo into a warm "M-O-M" logo, prominently displayed on the mound.
