Arizona Diamondbacks history

Arizona's franchise was set up on March 9, 1995, and started playing in 1998 as an expansion team. Fans often call it the D-backs. After a fifth-place finish in year one, the club added pitcher Randy Johnson, a future Hall of Famer who won four Cy Young Awards in a row there. The 1999 club won 100 games and its first division title.

The big moment came in 2001, only the fourth season. Arizona beat the three-time defending champion Yankees in the World Series, becoming the youngest team ever to win it. It was also the first title for any men's major pro team in Arizona. Twenty-two years later the D-backs won another pennant but lost the World Series to the Texas Rangers. Chase Field seats 48,330.
