At Coors Field, the facing of the right field mezzanine is adorned with the Rockies’ retired numbers and notable accolades: ‘42’ for Jackie Robinson, ‘KSM’ for the late team president Keli McGregor, ‘17’ for Todd Helton, ‘33’ for Larry Walker, and ‘2007 NL Champs’.
Larry Walker’s 33 doesn’t look like the rest:
33 is the only one with a gold ring around it, marking his induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. The gold ring is the highest possible honor for a Colorado retired number — but at Coors Field, it’s also being withheld from a key individual.
