While we enjoy the thrills and soak in the moments of both League Championship Series, Venom Strikes is taking back at great postseason moments in the history of the Arizona Diamondbacks that happened on the same day.
This is the first of a series of posts that will highlight glorious October triumphs for our beloved D-backs.
Take a trip down memory lane with us!
The 2001 D-backs’ run to the World Series began with a clash against manager Tony La Russa and the St. Louis Cardinals.
Right hander Curt Schilling got the ball in game one for manager Bob Brenly and led his team to a 1-0 victory in front of 42,251 fans at Bank One Ballpark in Phoenix.
