99 Anthony Rizzo is a Two-Way Player 😂

this is Anthony Rizzo you may know Anthony Rizzo as one of the better first basemen in baseball in the second half of the 2010s you may know him as the guy who caught the final out at first base when the Cubs broke their World Series drought but did you know that Anthony Rizzo is also a two-way player kind of Anthony Rizzo actually has two pitching appearances in his career one in 2018 and one in 2021 and in a combined one inning of work he did not give up a run and in 2021 he even got a strikeout well MLB the Show just added their new outof position series into the game and after you collect 40 of these cards you actually unlock a 99 two-way Anthony Rizzo yes we're looking at an Anthony Rizzo card with 101 hits per n 99 break with a screw ball that sits at 68 mph all while having these hitting attributes so you guys know I have to use Anthony Rizzo in a game of ranked Seasons I have't at starting pitcher I have him at DH and I'm expecting a big game out of him so let's get into it as I look for this game with Rizzo just a reminder that if you're going to any baseball games coming up remember to use code cougs on SeatGeek to save $20 on your tickets and Underdog fantasy has a

make sure to get access to all of that by signing up with code CBS I cannot wait to see what Anthony Rizzo gets to do here and we got Anthony Rizzo stepping up to the plate facing a right-handed pitcher so this will be a great matchup oh no throw that again please that's a pretty good swing on a low and Away Sinker does it have enough yes it does Anthony Rizzo going Oppo on a sinker in his first at bat for his first home run gets himself some run support in the first inning dude that's a true two-way player and now we get to pitch with him I'm going with the screw ball first look at his delivery he actually might be kind of funky especially on the higher levels come on we got to get a strike out first a going with the screw ball yeah let's go bye-bye griffy oh this guy can't lay off anything this is too easy his delivery is a little quick so you got to make sure your timing is good but if you can get that down Rizzo might actually disgusting been throwing a lot of the slow stuff let's challenge him with a highend in Sinker got him Anthony Rizzo just struck out the side how do people not have fun with this out of position stuff man I don't get it all right first inning was good let's see if Randy can have the same success here in the second line out let's go nothing like Zach grinkie making a play at third base okay two down I love that he pitches like from the stretch as well I have not thrown the fast ball yet and I'm going to right now and we got him one pitch against Kenley Janssen that's six up six down for Anthony Rizzo all while not only providing the only run for this team but the only hit so far through two innings we got to get him some more help damn dude he keeps throwing that change up over the middle of the plate and I keep missing it sure we're back to the top of the order let's get a couple more guys on and set up Anthony Rizzo in a huge spot to get some runs what am I doing dude why can't I lay off that change up with Bob Gibson that's the second time I've done that oh well Rizzo just going to have to keep dealing Randy don't let this fall don't let this be how he gets his first hit nice play Randy dude Randy was moving at a nice brisk Pace out there in left Field's get back to a strikeout come on right here one oh he did that's crazy I can't believe they let him get away with a too early swing timing for strike three that's unreal now he wants to be a little patient huh okay 31 that's a great take all right he's in a little bit of trouble let's see if he can get through it two two I'm going slider away Michael Lorenzen has a decent arm I did not get a perfect throw so I'm going to switch to the cut off man he's what are you what are you doing we got to get a run after he just threw away that inning out a boy Lorenzen nice start it's time for Rizzo again oh my God there's that change up again dude I can't slow the bat down Anthony Rizzo is two for two wasn't the prettiest swing in the world but it's not an out got him it's basically a bunt it works brought the infield in come on Mo just a deep Fly ball that that should be plenty to get the run in 87 speed as long as we get a good jump we're good yep we're going to go ahead and take a two nothing lead and we still have a chance to score Anthony Rizzo from second base could really use that extra run that is tough that is a brutal way to end the inning man with a guy on second too hopefully this inning is a little cleaner from Rizzo slider in Oh Oh I thought for sure that was getting pulled over the left wall oh this is a tough play for Bob Gibson I don't think he's I'm sorry Bob I was unfamiliar with your game it also helps that deg Grom has like 30 speed okay two out hit as long as he doesn't get to second we're okay yep you know I haven't actually thrown just the good old 126 it worked out four shutout innings for Anthony Rizzo oh Zach grinkie little two out double doesn't really mean much if we can't get him in though there we go Bob Gibson two out two run home run that's how we help out Rizzo now he's got a little bit more breathing room oh yeah my opponent is getting aggressive he's getting anany swing at the first pitch under the Zone he's trying to get four runs back with one swing oh two pitches two outs can we get a three- pitch inning come on a put it in play Swing and a miss 68 mph I don't play on Legend difficulty but I cannot imagine how annoying that's going to be to face for people here we go Rizzo two for two at the plate with five shut out Innings I want to see another home run and we're going to get it Anthony Rizzo is having the game of his life 435 ft no doubt about that one honestly I don't even really care how the rest of the offense does Anthony Rizzo has two home runs and five shutout Innings about to make it six couldn't ask for a better debut from this guy here 126 swinging a Miss how many strikeouts does he have six my man is dealing that's two I'm going to put the screw Ball even more in off the [Music] plate I mean what did he think that pitch was is that going to make him rage quit or is he just making a pitching change it is a pitching change Felix Bautista welcome to the game Felix and honestly at this point even if it's not a a shut out even if he does end up giving up a run at some point Rizzo's got to be going for the CG unless he just has the most nightmare inning of all time he should be pretty much smooth sain with a six-run lead double play got aggressive on the slider that's two outs and he gets another hit with two outs I actually kind of want to try throwing the screw ball up here I don't think I'm going to do that again it worked out now but that is not going to work out later here we go we got Lorenzen and then Anthony Rizzo stepping up oh 113 off the bat off a 103 mph fast ball that's an incredible swing from Michael Lorenzen hey Rizzo you got a third home run in you oh a foul tip get out of here there goes his perfect day at the plate oh well the CG is the only thing that matters now there we go there's out number one in the eighth yeah I missed that spot pretty bad he's in the yellow energy but he's only got 77 pitches I mean he's got 104 stamina I feel like that's like kind of early to be in the yellow maybe I'm tripping no no no no okay he should score on this but it is first and third with only one out I mean a double play gets us out of this inning griffy would be a tough guy to double up though oh we're not going to get the double play on this there goes the shut out maybe I should have went for the out at home for the tag but you know what at this point let's just try to get the CG it's all good inning's over just get the run right back with a lance ly solo shot okay Randy this offense was mad about that run in the bottom of the eth can I possibly get Rizzo another shot oh missed it how does that not carry more okay that's a two out double from Bob Gibson there's two outs I need Michael lenen to do something no man Rizzo was on Deck so close to another chance with him all right let's get this done three more outs and call it a day Randy he is not making this catch Rizzo let let's let's just get out of here let's just be done ah no way he's not going to be able to finish right there we go that's what I'm talking about oh he is out of energy got him anyway finish the job got him let's go what a performance from Anthony Rizzo a complete Game Victory with two homers at at the plate I mean it doesn't really get better than that the dude's Electric
