Chicago Cubs traded the three-time all-star player to the New York Yankees last year, and this was not Rizzo’s first argument on the field.
Anthony Rizzo was blue in the face
When the first inning of yesterday’s match was about to end, first baseman Anthony Rizzo had to unwillingly walk to the first base, and not being happy by the same, he appeared to have said,?“Shut the f*ck up”?to someone on the field.
It all started with Andrew Benintendi taking an early lead on the Mets by a superb play at the plate. This led the Mets’ Scherzer to appeal, and as he was doing so, Rizzo started running to the second base. It confused Scherzer, and he accidentally threw the ball into the center field. Following this, Rizzo advanced to third.

Rizzo went wild once before
A week before yesterday’s tension at the match was the time when Anthony Rizzo lost his temper in the dugout and went wild. Rizzo got struck by a pitch from Tampa Bay Ray’s player Ryan Yarbrough.

And the umpire asked him to stay at the plate and ruled that his hit-by-pitch should not count. This was enough for Rizzo to get his tempers to the boiling point. And he did his best Brett Gardner impression in the dugout.
