Bo Bichette, son of former Rockies star Dante Bichette, “excited” to make All-Star debut at Coors Field

Who says baseball isn’t poetic? The site of Bo Bichette’s first MLB All-Star Game is the same as the last one in which his father, former Rockies outfielder Dante Bichette, appeared: 20th and Blake. The cozy confines of Coors Field.

“It’s one of the best parks in the league,” the younger Bichette, now a star shortstop with the Toronto Blue Jays, said Monday afternoon at McGregor Square. “I’m excited to play here.

“I’ve taken a lot of batting practice here … been here a lot, watched a lot of games here. (I) have great relationships with a lot of former Rockies.
