Following the season, Holliday placed second in the MVP voting with 336 points to Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins with 363, in what was the closest result for the NL MVP since Atlanta Braves third baseman Terry Pendleton edged Pittsburgh Pirates left fielder Barry Bonds by 15 points in 1991. Holliday was selected as the Rockies’ Player of the Year for the second time and The Sporting News named him to their All-Star team. On December 14, Stillwater High School retired Holliday’s high school jersey number 24. Businesses in Stillwater were asked to honor him that day by posting a “Welcome Home Matt Holliday” message on a marquee or window. The city council voted to change the name of the baseball field from Babcock Park to Matt Holliday Field and name the day “Matt Holliday, Stillwater’s Major League Baseball Hero Day.” Then-Oklahoma Governor Brad Henry also declared the day “Matt Holliday Day” throughout the state.
Holliday’s first career multi-home run game came against the Cincinnati Reds on May 18. Both home runs came as part of back-to-back HR events with Burnitz, making them the first teammates in franchise history to hit back-to-back HR twice in the same game, and the first teammate duo to do so since Mike Cameron and Bret Boone of the Seattle Mariners in 2002. His first MLB grand slam came against the Tampa Bay Devil Rays on June 12, immediately tying a game in which the Rockies had faced a 5–1 deficit. For the month of June, he hit .357. The Rockies traded Walker to the Cardinals in August, clearing more outfield playing opportunities for Holliday. A sprained elbow while diving for a ball against the San Diego Padres on September 12 ended his season. His final batting line included a .290 AVG in 121 games, with 31 2B, 14 HR, 57 RBI, 48 extra-base hits, .349 OBP, 65 runs scored, .488 SLG, and 195 total bases. He finished in the top five among NL rookies in each of those categories. After the season, Holliday was named to both Baseball America’s All-Rookie Team and Topps’ Major League Rookie All-Star Team, and finished fifth in the Rookie of the Year balloting.
