World Series of Arizona Diamondbacks: 2012 @ 1999

The 2012 Diamondbacks have won three straight games in this tournament. After defeating 1998 behind Wade Miley, 5-3, they put on their hitting shoes and upset Zack Greinke and the 2017 D-backs in a 12-8 slugfest. Not satisfied with that outburst, they did it again in the next game, defeating 2001 and Randy Johnson 9-7. The regular season 99 OPS+ registered by Kirk Gibson’s boys was the 2nd best in franchise history. Report Link It’s worth remembering that league offense was down a bit in the early part of the last decade, so while the raw counting totals between 1999 and 2012 may seem to have a large gap, in context, they were comparable offenses.
