Anthony Rizzo officially retired Saturday as a Chicago Cub, which is as it should be. He and his family were joined by several luminaries — including, but not limited to, Eddie Vedder, Chris Chelios, and Cindy Crawford — on the field as the crowd feted the iconic first baseman. In a touching full-circle moment, Rizzo even carried his infant son out to first base.

Rizzo had been staying in shape at his home in South Florida just in case a sweetheart offer came around, but he was pretty certain his playing days were over.
