However, he made his intentions to retire known to the Storm and on October 11, 2004, the team traded Marinaro to the Cleveland Force in exchange for cash.

He scored his 1,000th point against his brother Rob, a goalkeeper for the Chicago Power. Hector was a seven-time league MVP the most in any professional sport in the United States. In May 2005, the MISL announced that it would name its annual MVP award the Marinaro Award.[7]

In addition to his extensive indoor career, Marinaro spent several seasons playing outdoor soccer. In 1986, he played for the Toronto Blizzard of the National Soccer League while his father was an assistant coach with the team.[8] Marinaro remained with the Blizzard for the 1987 Canadian Soccer League season then returned to the Blizzard for the 1993 American Professional Soccer League season.[9] He also had one season with Rochester Raging Rhinos of the A-League in 1996. Marinaro scored seven goals, as the Rhinos fell to the Seattle Sounders in the championship game.[10]
