After falling well short of Hall of Fame induction last week, former Colorado Rockies outfielder Larry Walker expressed his belief Friday that playing much of his career at altitude is hurting his chances.
Appearing on TSN Montreal 690 (h/t ESPN.com), Walker compared the perception of playing at the Rockies' Coors Field to using performance-enhancing drugs:
"I can't fault myself. I played for a major league team that happened to be in Denver. If that's a problem and if that's going to be an issue for them, then get rid of the team and move it elsewhere if it's going to be that big of an issue.
