Every ball being hit to left field is getting knocked down by the wind, but Anthony Rizzo is finding the sweet spots at Wrigley Field and two Matt Moore pitches have found the barrel of the first baseman’s bat. Rizzo has two home runs on Wednesday against the San Francisco Giants, both solo dingers tying the game for the Chicago Cubs.
Rizzo leapfrogged Kris Bryant for the team lead in home runs, getting to 11 this season with his 14th career multi-homer game. He hit the first off Moore on the very first pitch and then jumped on the second pitch in his next at bat.

Rizzo gets streaky, but when he gets on a roll there aren’t many hitters more dangerous than he is.
