Colorado Rockies History
The Colorado Rockies joined Major League Baseball in 1993. Their first decade was defined by the “Blake Street Bombers” — players Larry Walker, Andrés Galarraga, Dante Bichette, and Vinny Castilla — whose powerful hitting history carried the Rockies to their first postseason appearance in 1995. Hall of Famer Todd Helton spent his entire 17-year career with the Colorado Rockies and set team records in most major categories.
The Rockies advanced to the World Series for the first time in 2007 under the leadership of manager Clint Hurdle, and the team has made multiple playoff appearances throughout their history. Owned by brothers Charlie and Dick Monfort since 2005, the Rockies continue to build on their legacy in the Mile High City.

Colorado Rockies at Coors Field
The Colorado Rockies have called Coors Field home since 1995. Known for its stunning mountain views and mile-high elevation, the ballpark is one of the most distinct venues in the league and earned a reputation as a home run-friendly park due to the dry Colorado air. Coors Field hosted the 1998 MLB All-Star Game and the 2021 MLB All-Star Game. With a capacity of more than 50,000, Coors Field offers fans an open-air experience, blending stunning scenery, lively atmosphere, and Denver pride in every game day.
