Rockies legend Dante Bichette still looks plenty capable of lending a hand

Former Colorado Rockies slugger Dante Bichette hasn’t played in the Major Leagues since 2001. Still, if Wednesday’s UCHealth Healthy Swings Home Run Derby is any indication, the 53-year-old is still more than capable at the plate.

In fact, he could probably hit with one hand tied behind his back.

Bichette was not the only Blake Street Bomber on hand. Vinny Castilla, who still serves as a special assistant for the Rockies , also showed he still has some pop left in his bat.

The event was held to raise money for the National Stroke Association. For each hit, UCHealth donated a predetermined amount of money to the cause. The event ended up raising $35,600.
