"From day one of spring training, I could see it in their eyes," said Arizona (WIN) manager Glenn Lovell. "The players had that look of intensity, of hunger, of a desire to accomplish something great, and today they did that. They're champions of the world." The Diamondbacks took the series 4-3. The new titleholders completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the Division A and a 33-9 record. |
