Tyler Eugene Colvin (born September 5, 1985 in Template:City-state) is a Major League Baseball outfielder for the Chicago Cubs. Colvin played college baseball at Clemson University.

Professional career

Colvin was drafted by the Chicago Cubs 13th overall in the 2006 Major League Baseball Draft.

Colvin was called up to the majors for the first time on September 21, 2009.[1]. He started the game and went 1 for 3 with a single and a sacrifice fly.

After a strong spring in 2010, Colvin made the Cubs Opening Day roster.[2] On April 8, 2010 against the Atlanta Braves, Colvin hit his first major league home run on April 23, 2010 in Chicago's 8-1 win at Milwaukee. Three nights later Colvin hit his first triple of his major league career against the Washington Nationals.
