Here are some trivia questions surrounding the Colorado Rockies that could prove challenging for even the most hardcore fan.

Since the Colorado Rockies franchise first appeared on the diamond in 1993, there have been plenty of moments that have been historic and note-worthy. And, let’s be honest, some moments have been historic for reasons that are more pleasing to Rockies fans than others.

We thought we would look back through Rockies history to find some of those moments and put together some trivia questions that will have Rockies fans thinking hard about players from seasons past. We’ll assign points per question but the points really don’t matter, much like on “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” We’ll let you keep track of points and challenge friends to see who is the king or queen of Rockies trivia.

Let’s start with our first question. We will flash back to the 1999 season. That was the last time that four Rockies hit a home run in a single inning. Can you name any of those Rockies who were part of this historic inning? Bonus points if you get two players and massive bonus points if you name three or (dare to dream) all four.

Think about your answer. We’ll give you the names of the four players on the next page.
