Rizzo tries trading baseball for nachos with fan

Share

When Anthony Rizzo gets mic'd up for a Cubs game, he always provides a hilarious moment.

This season alone, a mic'd up Rizzo gave us the hysterical "Freddie! Frederick!" rundown moment with Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman. But his latest viral mic'd up moment came with a fan.

During Saturday's Cubs-Cardinals game, Rizzo tried trading a signed baseball to a fan in exchange for some nachos.

Rizzo said postgame the fan wanted the ball first, to which he told him "that's not how business goes."

"I was negotiating with him and tried teaching him a lesson but caved and gave him the ball first," he added.

Rizzo's nachos eventually arrived, and while he couldn't accept due to MLB's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, he thanked the fan for the gesture.

Rizzo is a World Series champion, MLB All-Star and Gold Glove Award winner. By the looks of it, he's quite the savvy businessman too.
