If you didn’t already have a little bit of a man crush on Anthony Rizzo…you’re about to.
The Chicago Cubs first baseman recently caught wind of Parker Hopkins, a 22-month-old from Iowa who is battling Acute Myeloid Leukemia, and did exactly what all of us would like to do…but don’t. Dude reached out to Parker, detailed his own battle with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (he was diagnosed in April 2008) and offered his support.
But then Rizzo went one step further. He put his money where his mouth is and donated $2500 to the Hopkins family.
Pretty cool.
