The (Full?) History of the Colorado Rockies in Cinema - Who starred in Moneyball? What movie was filmed at Coors Field?
Description
Randy Johnson (Little Big League), Dennis Eckersley (Fever Pitch) and Derek Jeter (The Other Guys) are some Cooperstown legends who have starred in films in some shape or form. The Colorado Rockies, with only two Hall of Fame players in 33 seasons, don't quite have the same cache. However, there are a handful of Rox you might have missed over the years. Which player starred in Moneyball? What baseball classic features Bud Black?
The World Baseball Classic begins in exactly one month from today. Why the consternation over so many players not being allowed to play? Will this be a topic for negotiations when the current CBA ends after the season?
Plus, a Las Vegas A's star eclipses Ezequiel Tovar's extension, Nolan Arenado gets harassed and the full-length film that highlights the early majesty of Coors Field.
