Dbacks rank 18th in Harris Poll of favorite baseball teams

Over on DBBP, a poster found this poll and shared it. The Harris Poll was a survey of 2,227 adults surveyed online between June 14 and 21, 2010. This poll has been run in years past as well. The highest score the diamondbacks have gotten is 14th, in 2006. The year surprises me as that was towards the end of the rebuilding process.

In 2010, the Yankees are #1, followed by the Red Sox and Braves. You can clearly see the results of the Phillies bandwagon as they were 18th most popular in 2007 and 4th this year.

This link has a few interesting numbers, including demographics. Some of the numbers are surprising, like the Cardinals being in the middle of the pack every year.

Here is the order of placement for this year:

New York Yankees
Boston Red Sox
Atlanta Braves
Philadelphia Phillies
Chicago Cubs
New York Mets
San Francisco Giants
Los Angeles Dodgers
Minnesota Twins
St. Louis Cardinals
Milwaukee Brewers
Texas Rangers
Detroit Tigers
Seattle Mariners
Chicago White Sox
Cincinnati Reds
Cleveland Indians
Arizona Diamondbacks
Kansas City Royals
Baltimore Orioles
Colorado Rockies
Tampa Bay Rays
San Diego Padres
Oakland Athletics
Pittsburgh Pirates
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim
Washington Nationals
Houston Astros
Florida Marlins
Toronto Blue Jays*

This poll was run for American's only, hence why Toronto comes in last in every year.
