Regarding the Diamondbacks...of course they will repeat! What sports team doesn't repeat (do something indistinguishable from what it has done on any given occasion in the past)?

Take football, for example: all get up, all crash into each other, all fall down, all get up again...over and over and over...

That's repetition.

And, man, is it TEDIOUS to watch! :-)

The same thing is happening in the Middle East, although with far more serious consequences, unfortunately...
