On September 30, the Diamondbacks clinched a playoff spot and they faced the Milwaukee Brewers in the NLWCS. They upset the Brewers, sweeping them in two games to advance to the NLDS where they faced the Los Angeles Dodgers. They swept the heavily favored Dodgers in three games to advance to the NLCS for the first time since 2007. In the NLCS, they defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in seven games to advance to their first World Series in 22 years where they lost to the Texas Rangers in five games, earning their first World Series loss in franchise history.

The 2023 team was nicknamed "The Answerbacks" by fans and local media since they had a reputation for consistently pulling out come-from-behind wins.[1] [2] Diamondbacks Broadcast announcer Steve Berthiaume was the first person to coin the term.

Offseason edit

The Diamondbacks finished the 2022 season 74–88, an improvement on their 2021 record of 52–110. They finished 37 games out of 1st and missed the postseason for the fifth consecutive season.

Rule changes edit

Pursuant to the CBA, new rule changes will be in place for the 2023 season:[3]

  • institution of a pitch clock between pitches;
  • limits on pickoff attempts per plate appearance;
  • limits on defensive shifts requiring two infielders to be on either side of second and be within the boundary of the infield; and
  • larger bases (increased to 18-inch squares);
