How much can the Rockies contribute to greatest era in Denver sports? The history of Tommy John surgery in Colorado
Description
The Colorado Rockies are not a laughingstock. They may be the worst team in Denver sports right now, but they are helping elevate this era with the incredible success of the Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche, Denver Pioneers hockey and much more. Will competition between the Kroenkes and the Penners lead the Rockies to holding up their end of the bargain with fans?
Tommy John surgery dates back to 1974. The second surgery wasn't even until 1978. Who was the first member of the Colorado Rockies to need repair on their UCL? What day in team history featured four TJs? And which two future members of the 2018 Rockies had surgeries on the same day while in college?
Plus, Tomoyuki Sugano's early success trend and the NL's dominance over the AL.
