Last week, Major League Baseball announced it was relocating the 2021 All-Star Game from Atlanta’s Truist Park.
Tuesday, the league said that the game and all the related All-Star festivities, including the 2021 MLB Draft, would be held in Denver, hosted by the Colorado Rockies.
This includes the Futures Game and Home Run Derby. MLB chose the Rockies because they were already in the bidding process to host a future All-Star Game. The Rockies had supplied a detailed plan for hotel, event space and security that took months to assemble, and MLB staff had already made several site visits to Denver.
