The Marlins went all-out for their Mother's Day festivities, turning their logo into a mound tribute

By Adrian Garro

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. 

Take another look:

Kudos to the team's grounds crew for that inspired effort, and happy Mother's Day to all the Moms!
