Arizona Diamondbacks Beat the Yankees - and the Heat: Northwind's first season in Phoenix

摘要

Who would have bet that the Arizona Diamondbacks could survive and thrive in the Phoenix desert, where summer temperatures commonly soar above 100 degrees for more than 100 days throughout the baseball season? The answer is the Diamondbacks' owners and management team. The same level of confidence that they showed in their World Champion baseball team they also put in Northwind Phoenix. The Diamondbacks relied on Northwind to begin cooling Bank One Ballpark, known as BOB, only 90 days before the team won one of the most memorable World Series of all time in 2001. In Northwind's first season - and the Arizona Diamondback's fourth - the two teamed up to develop a district cooling system to serve BOB and downtown Phoenix businesses.
