Colvin Makes Debut At First Base

Apr 05, 2011 2:42 PM EST

Tyler Colvin made his major league debut at first base for the Cubs on Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.

He replaced Carlos Pena, who is dealing with a sprained right thumb.

Pena suffered the injury during Monday's 4-1 victory over the Diamondbacks on a play to his far right.

"I actually made the play in the seventh on a ball into the hole," Pena said. "As I threw the ball, I put my glove hand down and kind of jammed it into the ground."
