It was an Opening Day unlike any other when the Colorado Rockies and Los Angeles Dodgers took the field at 20th and Blake on Thursday afternoon.

Thursday was a time to still take precautions, with fans wearing masks and social distancing measures in full effect as the COVID-19 pandemic continued to plague our society. But it was also a day of rebirth in LoDo, as a reported 20,570 fans returned to Coors Field for a regular season game for the first time since late September of 2019.
