WASHINGTON -- Trevor Story showed the world why he was selected to represent the Rockies at the All-Star Game presented by Mastercard on Tuesday night.
Down one to the American League in the seventh inning, Story stepped to the plate in his first at-bat, after coming into the game for starter Brandon Crawford in the sixth inning. He took a fastball from Charlie Morton -- then left no doubt to those in Nationals Park, launching a solo home run to the left field seats. It briefly tied the game, before the American League went on to win the Midsummer Classic, 8-6, in 10 innings.
