Cubs’ Rizzo returns to Parkland

Chicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo left spring training Thursday to return to his home in Parkland, Fla., to offer support in the wake of a deadly shooting at his former high school.

A 2007 graduate of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School where the shooting took place Wednesday, Rizzo donated $150,000 to his alma mater in November to help toward buying lights for the baseball and softball fields. His parents still live in the area.

Rizzo tweeted his support, saying, “Parkland and Coral Springs please stay strong!” and “This is out of control ... and our country is in desperate need for change. I hope In this darkest of times back home this brings everyone together and we can find love.”
