I would suggest three options that will guarantee good results if you're looking to get a hold of tickets in advance.
First you can go to MLB.com and click on the tickets link at the top of the page. This will allow you to choose which team and which games you'd like to purchase tickets for, assuming there are still some available. Being that you'll be going to a Marlins game...I'd expect some to be available.
Second you can go to ticketmaster.com and snag some tickets, but ticketmaster has a tendency to be a bit pricey, especially with all of the surcharges and other fees they tack onto the actual purchase price.
Finally, there are a number of good, reputable ticket-exchange websites. I know of acetickets, stubhub and a few others that I cannot think of right now. I have used stubhub.com many times and have had great success and usually at a fraction of the cost of purchasing tickets elsewhere.
If you're not worried about having your tickets in advance you can always wait until game day and simply arrive at the stadium and wander up to one of the ticketing booths located around the stadium and they'll take care of you right there.
Hope that helps and have a great time in Miami!

Just go to the Stadium. The Florida Marlins games are very poorly attended and you would have no trouble getting tickets. Possible exceptions would include games in which the opponent is the New York Mets (a divisional rival), The St. Louis Cardinals (last year's World Series Champion), The New York Yankees ( I've no idea if the Yankees would even be visiting Florida this year but if they did the game would surely be well attended) plus possibly one or two others such as the San Francisco Giants (people will want to see Barry Bonds as he approaches the all time Home Run record).

you can get them on eBay or outside the stadium. You could also go to www.mlb.com and find the team's website from there and buy tix through that site. I'm sure there are other ways but those 3 are the ones I use the most. If you dont already know, the 2 Florida based teams are the Florida Marlins(in Miami) and the Tampa Bay Devil Rays(in Tampa of course).

Go to Mlb.com look up Florida marlins and the game you want to attend while you are in town... you should be able to get the tickets on will call, which means you buy the tickets now and pick them up at the stadium..

Your best bet is to go to the websit of the team you want tickets for or go to MLB.com and buy them, you can have them sent to you or you can pick them up at the stadium the day of the game. This way should be the safest way to get tickets.

You can get both the Marlin's schedule and directions on purchasing tickets from their website. You'll also find a link there to ticket purchases.

Go to www.floridamarlins.com and buy them there. Tickets for a Marlins game are easy to get your hands on...the never sell out (their stadium is huge), and are always pretty cheap. It's not even worth checking ebay for them.

THE BEST PLACE IS ON THE FLORDIA MARLINS WEB SITE THEY WILL BE THE CHEAPEST AND THAT IS THE TEAM THAT HAILS FROM MIAMI BUT BE WARNED THEY MAY NOT BE HOME AND YOU MAU HAVE TO SETTLE FOR A MINOR LEAGUE TEAM UNLESS YOU WILL BE THERE FOR TEN DAYS OR KMORE THEN YOU WILL HAVE A GARUNTEED GAME. THE OTHER PLACE TO BUY TICKETS IF YOU WANT THE BEST SEATS IS A T STUBHUB.COM
