Rizzo Catches Busch Home Run in Bleachers

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Former Chicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo made a remarkable catch of a home run hit by current Cubs first baseman Michael Busch during a ceremony at Wrigley Field. Rizzo was seated in the bleachers after being honored with other members of the 2016 World Series-winning team when Busch’s solo shot came his way.

Rizzo, who played for the Cubs from 2012 to 2020, was present as part of a pregame ceremony recognizing the players from the historic 2016 championship squad. During the event, Michael Busch hit a solo home run.

The ESPN report details that Rizzo “recovered” Busch’s home run while sitting in the bleachers. No further details were provided regarding how far he had to reach or the difficulty of the catch, only that he successfully secured the ball after it landed near his seat.
