From the desk of Dan Price
...an Arizona sports fan
It's been 12 hours since Ketel Marte was called out on strikes for the final out of Game 5.
The season ends for our Arizona Diamondbacks. The hardware from the 2023 World Series is now in the hands of Corey Seager and Co. as the Rangers return to Texas with its first-ever Fall Classic title.
Oh, what could have been. Zac Gallen should have remained on the mound, and he should have continued to throw pitches... maybe 120 or more if he had needed to.
There was no tomorrow. Well, at least, only in, say, April of 2024.
On second thought, let the former Wildcat Kevin Ginkel, from the University of Arizona, close it out.
No matter. Arizona never scored, lost 5-0, and the Diamondbacks saved a trip to the Lone Star State.
Still, hats off to the Arizona Diamondbacks for a great postseason and some beautiful memories that'll last for a while. At least until next spring when baseball returns to the limelight.
So, what does an Arizona sports fan do now. We turn our attention to the Arizona Wildcats 2023-24 basketball team; that's what! Monday, the new season begins. Reve up the motor inside you and cheer on the Wildcats.
Go, Wildcats!
