BRYZZO

Group hug to all the Cubs fans out there.

This is exciting😃

Bryant, clearly emotional about the topic, said he still clings to hope.

"Obviously, I have to," he said. "Because it's not just something I'm going to deal with now, I'm going to deal with this the rest of my life. I've talked to a lot of people about it. I know a ton of people, not just playing baseball, but people who have terrible backs, too.

"I could never have expected this or seen this coming. And now that I'm dealing with it, I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. It's miserable."

How miserable?

"Some days it's hard to grab the toothpaste in front of me," he said. "It's not like that every day, but those days it's like you just wish you had some type of answer."

“I figure I can literally get away with anything today … The beer snake is definitely gonna happen, I don’t know if that’s legal here anymore.”

First MLB homer for Moises and it goes straight to the bleachers at Rizzo. Would’ve been epic if he caught it.

Ian Happ also used Anthony Rizzo's walkup song "Intoxicated" for his first at-bat.

Throwing out the first pitch

On Wednesday, Rizzo announced he will retire as a member of the Cubs on Saturday, closing the book on an incredible career that spanned 14 seasons. He'll also join the organization as a team ambassador.
