Chicago Cubs' Rizzo Forced Out of Tuesday's Game Due to Injury

Victor Caratini came into the game to replace Rizzo

Chicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo was forced to leave Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers with a foot contusion, the team says.

Rizzo, who fouled a ball off his right foot in the third inning, was removed later in the game as part of a double switch by manager Joe Maddon.

According to the team, X-rays on Rizzo's foot were negative, and the team will provide updates on his condition at a later time.

Victor Caratini came into the game to replace Rizzo.
