Anthony Rizzo and the rest of the Chicago Cubs lost their minds after pitcher Jake Arrieta hit a huge home run on the road against the San Francisco Giants.

The Chicago Cubs have a chance to put away one of the toughest teams to eliminate on Monday night. After taking the first two games of the NLDS at home, the Cubs are trying everything they can to eliminate the San Francisco Giants. Jake Arrieta helped his team’s chances early, when he crushed a home run.

After the pitcher hit a home run in a pivotal playoff game on the road, Anthony Rizzo and the rest of the Chicago Cubs lost their minds in the dugout. Saying they lost their minds might actually be an understatement. They jumped around, threw sunflower seeds in the air and celebrated like none other.

While the game wasn’t over, they all know how huge getting an early lead on the road is. The real MVP of this celebration is Rizzo. He’s just grabbing everything in sight and trying to have a great time on the bench.

If the Cubs are able to put away the Giants on Monday night, they will be back in the NLCS. There might be an even bigger celebration from Rizzo and the team then.
