He tells Michael J. Fox that the Boston Red Sox won the 2003 series by beating a Florida team. (what is even more amazing was that when the movie was made Florida didn't even have a baseball team then.)
They are slightly off. It was the Cubs beating a Florida team, and it was broadcast on a screen. No mention of the year. The sports almanac was purchased immediately after this exchange:

Where Goldie Wilson III's advert was earlier, a "Sportsflash" holo-announcement starts. It says that the Chicago Cubs beat the Miami Gators in the World Series.

Marty: Wait a minute.....Cubs win World Series....against Miami?

Terry: Yeah, something huh? Who would have thought? 100 to 1 shot. I wish I could go back to the beginning of the season and put some money on the Cubs.

Marty: No, I just meant Miami.....what did you just say?

Terry: I said I wish I could go back to the beginning of the season, put some money on the Cubbies!

Terry walks off. Marty has an idea. Cut to inside the Blast From The Past antique store. The SALESWOMAN takes the almanac from the window and gives it to Marty.
