Anthony Rizzo went back home to Parkland, Fla., where the Chicago Cubs first baseman spoke at a vigil after 17 people were killed at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
Rizzo left Cubs camp in Mesa, Ariz., late Wednesday following the tragedy at his alma mater. On Thursday night, Rizzo once again made a call for change, as the latest school shooting was the 18th of the year in the United States.
“While I don’t have all the answers I know that something has to change before this is visited on another community and another community, and another community," Cubs player @arizzo44 says at Florida vigil.
