Watch: Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant Entertain While Mic’d Up During ESPN Broadcast
We have seen several players mic’d up on the Marquee Sports Network broadcasts thus far, but ESPN took things to a whole different level on Monday afternoon. Both Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo were live for five whole innings, providing commentary while batting, in the field, and in the dugout. As you can imagine, it provided some incredible content for us all to enjoy.
Here are some of the best bits:
