Anthony Rizzo Is On Fire Lately
6 years agoChicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo continued to rake for the ball club as the Mets series concluded. He put up four hits in the game that started Tuesday and then reached base twice in the regularly scheduled Wednesday game. Rizzo had a batting average that was struggling until head coach Joe Maddon moved him into the leadoff spot awhile back. Since then, he has improved his batting average up to .286 and even won the National League Player of the Month last week. He is on pace to go over 100 RBI and his recent hot streak has richly rewarded those who kept their faith in him during the down times.
