Governor Polis Pushing To Bring MLB All Star Game To Colorado

You Could Win Up To $10,000! Here’s What You Need To Know

Major League Baseball pulled the plug on the All-Star Game in Atlanta this year due to Georgia's new restrictive voting laws.

According to 9 News, Coors Field and Colorado were a candidate to host the mid-summer classic which includes a three-day baseball extravaganza including the home run derby, various all-star events, and of course, the all-star game itself.

Coors Field last hosted the All Star festivities back in 1998 and while they're not scheduled to be hosting in the near future, this last minute score could be just what the doctor ordered to bring the eyes of the baseball world back to Coors Field.

The last time the home run derby was in Coors Field, it was epic...and how about the names that were involved in that event. SO many future hall of famers.
