DENVER -- Talk about a Hollywood script.
Chicago Cubs rookie -- and Denver area native -- David Bote doubled in his first major league at-bat on Saturday at Coors Field, after being called up from Triple-A Iowa just hours earlier.
Bote, 25, was drafted in the 18th round in 2012 and almost gave up baseball several times but instead got to play his first major league game against his childhood team in front of family and friends.
"It's God ordained," a smiling Bote said before the game.
