My wife and I watched with tears in our eyes. One of our friends was playing for the Diamondbacks. This was his first year with them and his 15 year in the majors. I think last night made up for all those years of losing in Chicago.
Congratulations to your friend Mark, who had a great game and started the rally with that clutch hit to open the 9th! Considering what happened after that (messed up fielding on a sac bunt attempt), who knows, maybe without that hit the D-backs end up losing. Always liked that player.
(And this coming from a Giants fan who delighted in ending his team's season in '89...I'll never forget his and Ryno's dejected looks.... ;)
