What are the odds that a former Big Leaguer would wind up with a home run ball while sitting in the bleachers at his old ballpark?
Probably pretty low, but it has now happened to former Chicago Cub Anthony Rizzo twice.
The odds of which seem so astronomical you’d have to get someone from NASA to figure them out for you.
In the bottom of the first inning against the Minnesota Twins, Cubs first baseman Michael Busch sent the 0-1 offering from Twins righty Taj Bradley to the right field bleachers, where a bunch of fans tried to get their paws on it.
However, the one who came up with it happened to be the first baseman from the 2016 curse-breaking Cubs.
How about that?

As I said, it seems borderline impossible for that to happen once, but the same thing happened to Rizzo in another game at Wrigley just last season.
It was nice of Rizzo to switch up his jerseys, so we know that those homers happened on different days. Would’ve been nice if he held up that day’s newspaper just to make it concrete.
This boggles my brain, and I think it just means that we all have to go on Anthony Rizzo home run-catching (or, more accurately, grabbing off the ground) watch. At his current one home run ball per season clip, he’s looking at making it No. 3 next season.
Rizzo was drafted by the Boston Red Sox in 2007 and made his MLB debut with the San Diego Padres in 2011.

But, of course, it was his ten seasons in Chicago — including being a part of that 2016 World Series team — that his career is best remembered for.
He was traded to the New York Yankees in 2021 and played his final MLB season in 2024.
