Rockies' Daniel Bard hits 99 mph, picks up win in return to MLB after a seven-year absence

Posted Jul 25, 2020
In the fifth inning of the Rockies' eventual win over the Rangers, reliever Daniel Bard took the mound for Colorado. That's notable because in doing so Bard appeared in a major league game for the first time since April 27, 2013 -- i.e., more than seven years ago, or to be exact 2,646 days ago. Against all expectations, Bard has clawed his way back to the highest level. (CBS Sports)
