COORS FIELD HISTORY

COORS FIELD  (capacity 50,445)

Denver, Colorado

Park opened April 1995.  The combination of thin air nearly a mile above sea level and low humidity cause the ballpark to be by far the most hitter-friendly park in the majors.  In 1999 a major league record 303 home runs were hit in this ballpark.  Rookie shortstop Troy Tulowitski turned the majors twelfth un-assisted regular season triple play here on 4-29-2007 against Atlanta.
