Before opening the World Series, the Arizona Diamondbacks wanted to recount a series of slights 20bet
Overlooked by oddsmakers and angered by analysts, the Diamondbacks find themselves in a Surprise Series against the also unexpected Texas Rangers 20bet
But the mindsets couldn't be more different ahead of Friday night's opener in Major League 20bet Baseball's third all-wild card title matchup 20bet

"The Diamondbacks are tracking closely what the public says, with MLB Network a clubhouse constant 20bet
Meanwhile, the Rangers insist they pay no attention 20bet

South Africa players and coaches have defended Bongi Mbonambi as a “great guy” and a “family man” amid the Springboks hooker being investigated for an alleged racial slur during the Rugby World Cup semi-final win over England 20bet
England flanker Tom Curry has alleged that Mbonambi called him a “white c***” during the defeat in Paris on Saturday evening, as South Africa edged to a dramatic 16-15 victoryAfter 23 minutes at the Stade de France, Curry could be heard on the referee’s microphone alerting official Ben O’Keeffe to a comment possibly made by Mbonambi at a ruck 20bet
“Sir, if their hooker calls me a white c***, what do I do?” Curry inquired of O’Keeffe 20bet
“Nothing, please,” responded the official, before adding a few moments later, “I’ll be on it,” in what may have been an unrelated comment 20bet
The alleged incident itself could not be heard on the television broadcast 20bet
World Rugby has since confirmed it is investigating the incident and will not be making any further comment until the conclusion of the process 20bet
On Monday afternoon, in the first Springboks media activity since the allegations became public, scrum coach Daan Human and lock Jean Kelyn defended Mbonambi’s character, while refusing to comment on the specific incident 20bet
“It’s being dealt with by World Rugby and South Africa Rugby, so from my side, I can’t comment,” began Human when first asked about the incident 20bet
“I’m focussing on the scrums 20bet
We had a good, positive training session, and nothing else came out 20bet
I can’t really comment on that 20bet
”Bongi Mbonambi is being investigated for an alleged racial slur (Getty Images)However, when pushed on what Mbonambi is like as a person around the squad, Human was effusive in his praise of the front row 20bet
“Bongi has been part of this group for the last six years,” added Human 20bet
“He’s a very important piece of the puzzle for us 20bet
He was starting in the last World Cup and our semi-final, so he’s very important to us, like all other players 20bet
“He’s one of our leaders in our group 20bet
He’s a great guy, a family man, my kids always look after his kids when they come to the hotel 20bet
He’s a humble guy, down to earth, like all players who play for the Springboks 20bet
“To be straightforward and honest with you, he’s a very calm guy, a well-spoken guy 20bet
I don’t want to go into it because we’ve got a World Cup final in six days’ time 20bet
I’m more concentrated on the forwards 20bet
”Mbonambi is the only specialist hooker in the Springboks squad after the injured Malcolm Marx was replaced by fly half Handre Pollard earlier in the tournament 20bet
Bongi Mbonambi played all 80 minutes of the Springboks’ semi-final win (PA)He played all 80 minutes of the semi-final, and finished the game as captain once Siya Kolisi was substituted, although veteran back row Deon Fourie played hooker earlier in his career and flanker Marco van Staden has also filled in at the position in the past 20bet
So Human was unconcerned about South Africa being short-handed in the event of Mbonambi being found guilty and banned for the final 20bet
“We’ve got three guys capable of playing hooker in the group,” he said 20bet
“We’re very comfortable having three hookers 20bet
We’re glad we have three hookers, which we’re supposed to have because going into a final you need to have two hookers in the squad 20bet
”Lock Jean Kleyn was also asked about his relationship with Mbonambi, having played alongside him at club and international level, and was similarly glowing in his praise of the hooker 20bet
“Bongi is a great guy,” stated Kleyn 20bet
“I’ve known him since we were playing at the Stormers together I think nine years ago 20bet
He’s a fantastic guy, a good individual 20bet
“I’m not going to comment on that or justify it [the allegations] 20bet
All I’ll say is he’s a fantastic bloke 20bet
He’s a great guy, a passionate guy, a family man 20bet
He’s captained the Springboks a couple of times and he’s an upstanding guy, I don’t think there’s a fellow in the squad who doesn’t like him 20bet
”The Springboks face the All Blacks in the World Cup final at the Stade de France on Saturday evening 20bet
