If there was an early season test for the Arizona Diamondbacks, the results of their recent 10-day journey from the desert could ally fears and trepidation. Then again, what was accomplished during their just-completed three-city road trip should not be a mystery.
Flying back Thursday night to the desert after a 7-1 trip, that percentage mark of .875 is the best in franchise history for a three-city trip. What seems to be equally amazing is how this team handled the Colorado Rockies in the Rox back yard. Reputation surrounding Coors Field is legendary, but the fact the Diamondbacks scored 26 runs in the final two games of the series remains a testament to their character, resiliency and dedication.
