Diamondbacks Rally Past Reds to Claim 1-0 Series Lead
The Arizona Diamondbacks powered past the visiting Cincinnati Reds, 5-4, in the opener of the World Series at Bank One Ballpark today. Arizona designated hitter Moises Alou went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles, to lead the charge. The Diamondbacks now lead the series 1-0.

Arizona's win came gift-wrapped. With two out in the bottom of the ninth, with the game tied, Delino DeShields reached on an error by the 1B, driving in 1 run.

"This place was jumping at the end," DeShields said.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow. Slated to start are Jim Abbott for Cincinnati and Scott Sanders for Arizona.
