Colorado Rockies: Dante Bichette talks Blake Street Bombers and pitching

The home run event focused on stroke awareness and benefitted the National Stroke Association. Bichette showed his home run power during his time in the cage and even took some swings one-handed, hitting line drives.

One of the founding fathers of The Blake Street Bombers, Bichette joined Andres Galarraga, Larry Walker, Vinny Castilla and Ellis Burks to form one of the most well-known groups to ever take the field for the Rockies. To this day, any time a Rockies team gets on a roll offensively, comparisons to the Blake Street Bombers are evoked.
