The Rundown: Rizzo Returns, Mother Nature Hates Baseball, Jackie Robinson Day

No game yesterday so I watched a replay of Saturday’s attempt at major league baseball that was a textbook example of attrition. A late TD, missed extra point, and a field goal by Javy Baez helped the Cubs rally from a 10-5 deficit in a 14-10 victory played in wintry conditions. Bear down, Chicago Cubs.

Weather was the story of the day. More on that later, but, the decision to cancel yesterday’s game was more than OK with Cubs manager Joe Maddon, who also did not want Saturday’s game played.
