Rockies supporters are remembering a very special 15-year-old fan. They've created t-shirts with "KB 64" on them.
"KB" stands for Kyle Blakeman, who died of cancer in August. The number 64 was on Kyle's football jersey.
CBS4 recently reported that Clint Hurdle has written the number 64 on the top of his batting lineup since hearing about the Blakeman's story.
Money from the sale of the 64 shirts at Champs restaurant in Aspen Grove in Littleton goes to cancer research.
