Denorfia helps save 'pen in loss to Tigers
Denorfia pitches in 9th 1:08 8/19/15: Cubs infielder Chris Denorfia enters the ballgame with two outs in the top of the 9th and gets Jose Iglesias to ground out "I've maybe thrown two innings in my entire life," Denorfia said. "You look at the scoreboard and see where we're at. The thought crossed my mind the inning before. [Bench coach Dave Martinez] asked me if I would, and obviously, I'd do whatever they want me to do.
"I went out there and just made it up," Denorfia said of his repertoire. "I was absolutely terrified. It looks completely different from that side. It looks way farther away. It was fun on a not-so-fun day."
