PHILADELPHIA—The Arizona Diamondbacks are young and inexperienced.
They won just 84 games during the regular season and barely made it to the playoffs.
They are one of the few championship-contending teams that can sincerely spout the maxim, “No one believed in us.”Yet the Diamondbacks are heading for the World Series on the back of a playoff run that goes beyond disbelief.
They have toppled big names—the Milwaukee Brewers, Los Angeles Dodgers and now the Philadelphia Phillies—with a team of players that few have heard of, outside of Arizona.
