When Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Germán Márquez walked off the diamond following his one-inning perfect stint during Tuesday night’s All-Star Game at Coors Field, the ovation he received from the home fans was one of the more electric moments of the game.
The love shown to Márquez, and the love he returned with a tip of the cap after his 1-2-3 outing in the fourth, will go down as one of the All-Star Game highlights for the Rockies franchise.
