Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Germán Márquez will be the lone representative from the team when the 91st Major League Baseball All-Star Game is held at Coors Field on July 13.
Márquez, who made the start on Sunday against the St. Louis Cardinals in the final game of a seven-game homestand, will be the eighth Colorado pitcher (and sixth starter) to earn an All-Star Game nod.
Acquired in a trade with the Tampa Bay Rays on January 28, 2016, Márquez had put together an impressive run heading into Sunday’s start.
