The Arizona Diamondbacks recognized former infielder Nick Ahmed during Monday's game against the San Francisco Giants, honoring his contribution to their National League Championship-winning campaign.
The D-Backs were intending to honor Ahmed with an NLCS ring, but the veteran infielder reportedly told not them not to bother, declining the offer from his former team, according to John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports.
Ahmed, 34, played the first 10 seasons of his career in Arizona, but was released last year with one month left in the season. In his absence, the team went on to make its longest postseason run since 2001, and it seems he still harbors some bitter feelings about the situation.
