Still Alive: The Daniel Bard Story

Posted Mar 15, 2023
In February 2020 the Colorado Rockies decided to take a flyer on a 34-year-old reliever that hadn’t pitched in the big leagues since 2013. Daniel Bard was determined to prove to himself and the baseball world that he had plenty more in the tank. Three years later, as one of MLB's elite relievers, Bard toed the rubber for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic. (Purple Row)
