The St. Louis Cardinals 2001 season was the team's 120th season in St. Louis,Missouri and the 110th season in the National League. The Cardinals went 93–69 during the season and finished tied for first in the National League Central with the Houston Astros. Because the Cardinals and Astros were best two teams in the National League,both from the Central,and both finished five games ahead of the third-place Chicago Cubs,the Astros were awarded the NL Central champion and the number 1 seed in the playoffs due to winning the season series 9–7,and the Cardinals were seeded as the wild-card.
The 2004 Arizona Diamondbacks looked to improve on their 84–78 record from 2003. The D-backs hoped to contend for a postseason berth in what was a weaker National League West than in years past. However,just three years after winning a World Series title,the Diamondbacks instead finished the season with a record of 51–111,the worst record by any National League team since the 1965 Mets won one fewer game. The one highlight of a disastrous season was when Randy Johnson pitched a perfect game on May 18,2004. The franchise record would not be threatened until 2021,when they finished 52–110. Despite the 110-loss season in 2021,the Diamondbacks didn't earn the first overall pick in the 2022 MLB Draft,as the Baltimore Orioles finished with a 52–110 record,but were worse due to records against American League opponents.
