What is the story about?
On Sunday, we gave you a list of the best defensive play of 2026 and asked you to provide others that stuck out to you. As this is a Rockies site, we will be voting on Rockies plays, but an Honorable Mention goes to Colorado Springs Northsider’s nomination of the Colton Cowser walk-off home run robbery in August (that was definitely the play of the year at Coors Field).
So without further ado, here are your Top 5 (in chronological order):
- Jordan Beck’s home run robbery: April 11th at San Diego
- You’ll believe TJ Rumfield can fly: May 18th vs Texas
- Cole Carrigg crashes into the Wrigley Field ivy: June 16th at Chicago
- Cole Carrigg turns an 8-5 double play from center field: June 17th at Chicago
- Tyler Freeman’s incredible throw: July 17th vs St. Louis
Which one is the best Rockies defensive play of 2026? Voting
will be open until Friday at 8pm MT.
