The Colorado Rockies’ ho-hum history at the Midsummer Classic

That doesn’t mean the Rockies don’t get stars to the Midsummer Classic. In fact, at least one Rockies’ position player has make the All-Star Game every year in franchise history except 2005, when the Rockies only representative was reliever Brian Fuentes. They’ve just failed to produce game-changing moments or memorable performances.

Larry Walker — a future Hall-of-Famer in a just universe — claims the most memorable moment of any Rockies All-Star. In 1997, Walker had some good-natured fun with old friend Randy Johnson. After Johnson threw a pitch behind his head, Walker flipped his helmet backwards and spun around to bat on the other side of the plate.
