===2007β2015=== The franchise unveiled new uniforms and colors of Sedona red, Sonoran sand and black on November 8, 2006.<ref>{{cite web|last=Gilbert|first=Steve|title=D-backs unveil new colors, new look|url=http://m.dbacks.mlb.com/news/article/1737540/|publisher=MLB Advanced Media|website=Dbacks.com|date=November 8, 2006|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150221160830/http://m.dbacks.mlb.com/news/article/1737540/|archive-date=February 21, 2015|access-date=July 11, 2019|url-status=dead}}</ref> The [[red]] shade is named for the [[sandstone]] [[canyon]] at [[Red Rock State Park]] near [[Sedona, Arizona|Sedona]], while the [[beige]] (sand) shade is named for the [[Sonoran Desert]].<ref name="purplesedonared"/> A sleeve patch was added featuring a lowercase "d" and "b" configured to look like a snake's head.<ref name="purplesedonared"/> The team also kept the "D" logo, which was slightly altered and put on an all-red cap to be used as their game cap. They kept the "A" logo with the new colors applied to it, with a solid black cap used as the alternate cap. Arizona's updated color scheme bore a striking resemblance to the [[Houston Astros]]' color scheme (brick red, sand and black) that the Astros used until 2012, as well as the [[National Hockey League|NHL]]'s [[Arizona Coyotes|Phoenix Coyotes]], whose adoption of those colors predated the Diamondbacks by four years. The white home uniform featured "D-Backs" in red with sand and black trim. The road gray uniform featured "Arizona" in red with sand and black trim. Player names were red with black trim while numbers were black with red trim. The alternate red uniform contained "D-Backs" in sand with red and black trim, with player names in sand with black trim and numbers in black with sand trim. There were two versions of the alternate black uniform. One design has the alternate "A" logo on the right chest, while the other has "Arizona" written in red with black and sand trim. The latter was introduced in 2013 as a tribute to the victims of the [[Yarnell Hill Fire]]. On both uniforms, player names were sand with red trim, and numbers in red with sand trim. {{multiple image | footer = [[Tony PeΓ±a (pitcher)|Tony PeΓ±a]] (left) in the 2007β2015 home uniform; [[Chris Burke (baseball)|Chris Burke]] (2nd from left) in the 2007β2015 road uniform; [[A.
