VIDEO: Anthony Rizzo Demolishes Homer Off the Budweiser Sign at Wrigley Field
By Seth Carlson
A 3-0 count to a hitter like Cubs star Anthony Rizzo can only mean trouble for the opposing pitcher. Phillies rookie pitcher Cole Irvin found that out the hard way. Irvin left a pitch right in Rizzo's wheelhouse in the bottom of the third inning and he made sure to demolish it, far enough that it hit the Budweiser sign all the way out in right field.

If you hang it, he will bang it, and Anthony Rizzo's 12th home run ended up being a legit bomb. Irvin will think twice before challenging him in his hot zone again.
