Who Is Marlins Man? The Orange-Clad Superfan Spotted at World Series Game 3

Baseball fans watching Game 3 of the World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday night noticed a familiar sight — a man in a bright orange Miami Marlins outfit sitting right behind home plate.

That unmistakable figure is none other than “Marlins Man,” whose real name is Laurence Leavy, a Florida attorney famous for showing up at major sporting events in his signature orange Marlins gear.

Who Is Marlins Man?

Laurence Leavy, known as Marlins Man, is a well-known baseball superfan from South Florida. For over a decade, he’s been spotted sitting in premium seats at high-profile games — from the World Series to the NBA Finals and Kentucky Derby — always wearing bright orange to represent his beloved Miami Marlins.

Was That the Real Marlins Man at Game 3?

Fans wondered if the man behind home plate was the real Marlins Man or an imposter. Earlier this postseason, fake “Marlins Men” had appeared at some MLB games. However, viewers quickly confirmed that the man seen Monday night was indeed the real Laurence Leavy, wearing his trademark orange shirt and visor.

Why He’s So Famous

Marlins Man first gained national attention around 2014, when TV cameras regularly caught him behind home plate during major games. Since then, he’s become a cult figure in baseball culture — loved by some, teased by others — but always noticed.
