It's lunchtime and we're here to navigate you through some of the things you've missed in Phoenix sports since you've been chained to your desk.
Cardinals Don't Seem to Have Faith in Leinart
Ah, that's more like it. Disfunction used to be the name of the game for the Arizona Cardinals prior to Kurt Warner's arrival (and even during his first few years). With the Hall of [...]

It was the perfect day for Cardinals management on Sunday:
Not only did the Cardinals beat the Bears in Chicago – the place Bill Bidwill regards as the franchise’s home more than St. Louis – but they did it in grand style with as dominant a first half as they come.
And once the big lead was built – except for a few anxious moments when Matt Leinart somehow stumbled on the field – the [...]

Baseball Bobbleheads date back to the early 1960's, with players like Roberto Clemente, Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle being among the first individual players to be featured.
Forty some-odd years later, bobbleheads are still the jewel of Major League Baseball promotional nights, bringing in fans who collect the figurines.
The Arizona Diamondbacks will once again feature Bobblehead nights as part of their 2009 promotional schedule.
Here's a list of [...]

The Skinny: Leading 3-2 in the 7th inning, with 2 runners on, Brandon Webb faced MVP-candidate Albert Pujols. If you're the St. Louis Cardinals, you wouldn't want any other hitter at the plate with a chance to deliver at least the tying run. Webb struck out Pujols, got out of the jam, and helped the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 4-2 in St. Louis to open a 4-game series.
The D-Backs were in [...]

The Skinny: The Arizona Diamondbacks had an unusual offensive explosion, scoring 5 runs in the second inning, built a 7-3 lead and then hung on for dear life in a 7-6 win over the San Francisco Giants at Chase Field. The Giants' jumped on Arizona starter Brandon Webb early, putting up 3 runs in the first inning. The Diamondbacks answered with one of their own [...]

The Skinny: Dan Haren will turn 28 years old tomorrow. On Tuesday night, he gave himself and fans of the Arizona Diamondbacks an early gift. Haren pitched his first ever complete game shutout, and tied a career-high with 12 strikeouts, as the D-Backs won their 2nd straight over the Giants 2-0 at Chase Field. Haren, who had only 5 complete games in his previous 151 big league starts, threw 117 [...]

The Skinny: Wow. The Arizona Diamondbacks actually showed a sign of life on Tuesday night. Chris Snyder belted a 2-run home run in the top of the 9th inning to tie the game at 4. But it didn't last long, as the Diamondbacks' bullpen failed again in a 5-4 win by the San Francisco Giants. After reliever Jon Rauch started the 9th by giving up a base hit to [...]

The Skinny: Brandon Webb allowed just 3 hits and struck out 8 in 7 shutout innings en route to his major league-leading 19th victory in a 4-1 decision that completed a 3-game sweep over the San Diego Padres Thursday at Chase Field. Tony Clark opened the scoring with a sac fly in the 2nd inning that scored Adam Dunn. Conor Jackson added a 2-run double in the 5th, and Chris Snyder [...]

The Skinny: If I was a gambling man, I would have bet my house that a pitching matchup between Arizona's Dan Haren and Jake Peavy of the Padres would have resulted in a 1-0 or 2-1 game. Thank goodness I'm not much of a gambler. Instead it turned into a wild affair that stood at 4-3 after one inning. The Diamondbacks took advantage of 8 bases on balls en [...]
