Rockies host National Play Campaign

DENVER -- Who says you can't get outside and be active on a rainy day in May?

It helps when you've got a big league ballpark to make use of, and the Rockies made full use of Coors Field on Saturday to give about 50 children the chance to learn from Major League players and try some of the training equipment the big leaguers use to hone their craft.

The two-hour clinic was part of the National PLAY Campaign -- Promoting a Lifetime of Activity for Youth -- and was started in 2004 by the Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers Society.
