What started out with a romp through the showers in a laundry cart for their new manager – and a sudsy beer bath to boot – ended on Sunday with a thunderous, three-game sweep of the defending American League champions and yet another raucous postgame celebration.
It’s been a wet and wild first week for the Diamondbacks and first-year skipper Torey Lovullo, who now own the best record in all of baseball at 6-1 (.857 winning percentage).
“I’m really proud of these guys for that, I really am,” Lovullo said after the Diamondbacks toppled Corey Kluber and the Cleveland Indians 3-2 in front of 30,191 at Chase Field.
