Former St. Louis Cardinals pitcher-turned-outfielder Rick Ankiel possesses one of the most inspiring stories of any player in baseball. Many fans are familiar with his emergence onto the scene as an immensely talented pitcher with a hammer curveball, only for him to disintegrate in Game One of the 2000 NLDS, losing control of all of his pitches.

Sure, it’s not the case, but it just seems like the Diamondbacks mess with their color scheme every so often – probably too often.
