Arizona DiamondbacksThe Arizona Diamondbacks are a relatively new Major League Baseball team, and play in the West Division of the National League. Nicknamed the "D-backs," the team has already won one World Series. They won in 2001, which makes them the youngest team to have ever won a championship. It only took them four years.

Their first game was a sell-out crowd of 50,179, with tickets selling out in a matter of hours.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have gone on to become a highly competitive team. In their first five seasons, the D-Backs won three division titles (1999, 2001, 2002) and one World Series (2001). In 1999, Arizona won 100 games in only its second season to win the NL West title.
