2021 All-Star Game: Denver beat out some other premier cities for hosting honors

Denver, Colorado has been awarded the hosting duties for 2021 MLB All-Star festivities. Many other cities have a strong candidacy for hosting, so what put Denver over the top?

Given current protocols, the Rockies are able to welcome the third-highest capacity percentage in baseball (42.6), reasoning Coors Field more desirable than others this year for fan attendance. The Rockies have plenty to show off this July with the completion of McGregor Square and the trendsetting party deck in right field; subsequent growth in and around Union Station will also be on full display right next to the ballpark.
