Arizona displayed guts at another club crossroads

[Dback Jon]

It was mid-May and the Arizona Diamondbacks were a tangle of unfulfilled talent, uncertain direction and unsold tickets.

As such, their record was 15-22, their deficit in the National League West 5½ games, their season headed exactly where spring had portended.

The lingering question was not whether manager Kirk Gibson’s head would explode, but where his eyebrows might land.

It's great reading things like this... until we get swept by the Phillies in the first round.

And if we are........... SO WHAT, I'm enjoying the fact that we may get there.

Nice. We've needed old school for a very long time.

This team will pose a problem for anyone they face in the playoffs. Pesky is the term that describes them, and they never seem to quit. Looking forward to the post season.
