WASHINGTON -- Amidst a marathon stretch in the schedule, Anthony Rizzo resorted to desperate measures.
Following Wednesday night's loss to the Milwaukee Brewers, the Cubs slugger dressed in full uniform for the team's overnight flight to Washington, D.C., where Chicago is playing a makeup game against the Nationals before heading right back to the Windy City for a weekend series against the Cincinnati Reds.
This morning, shortly after 9 a.m., Rizzo posted pictures from the flight on Twitter with the caption, "Staying game ready."
Staying game ready.
