Stats of the Day: Rizzo double dips in HRs
- Updated: April 25, 2016
Here are five interesting items from around the big leagues this weekend …
• In Sunday’s 9-0 win over the Reds on Sunday, Anthony Rizzo continued his recent homer surge and Jason Hammel extended his remarkable start to the season. Rizzo homered twice to reach eight for the year. The double dip into the homer column leaves the first baseman two roundtrippers shy of tying Alfonso Soriano (2011) for the most for a Cubs player in March/April. Hammel allowed three hits in six scoreless innings to lower his ERA to 0.75 in four starts. The right-hander concluded the day second in the National League in ERA, just ahead of teammate Jake Arrieta and his 0.87 ERA.
