Posted August 16, 2016 7:00 am
CHICAGO (AP) - Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo jumped onto a wall and plucked a foul ball from above a group of fans at Wrigley Field during a game against the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday night.
Rizzo leapt atop the side wall with both feet just past the tarp, leaned into the crowd and made a circus catch of Keon Broxton's foul pop. He then dismounted back onto the field standing up and broke into a wide smile.
The Wrigley Field crowd followed with "MVP, MVP" chants.
Fans were still buzzing and stood and cheered for the All-Star after the final out of the fifth.
