Actor Patrick Dempsey promised to rescue Seattle's Tully's coffee chain with a $9.15 million bid to buy it out of bankruptcy, Reuters reported on Friday. The "Grey's Anatomy" star who plays Dr. Derek Shepherd, a surgeon at fictional Seattle Grace Hospital, said that his offer bested those from six rival bidders - including global coffee giant Starbucks Corp. Tully's owner TC Global Inc filed for chapter 11 protection to reorganize in October. Bidders said that a bankruptcy court hearing on the sale is set for Jan. 11 in Seattle.
