Greenberg to get 1-day chance with Marlins (Yahoo! Sports)

FILE - This is an undated file photo showing Chicago Cubs baseball player Adam Greenberg. Greenberg will get another shot at hitting in the major leagues. The Miami Marlins say they will sign the former Cubs prospect to a one-day contract effective Oct. 2, and play him that day against the New York Mets. Greenberg made his first _ and only _ big-league appearance on July 9, 2005 for the Cubs against the Marlins, getting hit in the head by a Valerio De Los Santos pitch his first time at the plate. The impact of the 92 mph fastball lingered and he was later diagnosed with vertigo. (AP Photo/Nam Y. Huh, File)
