The team's unofficial captain was a guiding light for the guys around him in the clubhouse.
There has been a tremendous outpouring of love from Chicago Cubs fans to North Side legend Anthony Rizzo this week, for what he did on and off the baseball diamond. One thing that deserves a lot of kudos was his incredible consistency as a hitter in his prime years as a Chicago Cub.
Rizzo wore the blue pinstripes from 2012-2021. His first few years as a young hitter were up and down due to his getting acclimated to MLB pitching, and in his final years, he was battling nagging injuries.
