Cubs' Anthony Rizzo fell to his knees in hitting home run vs. Tigers

Show Caption

Among Anthony Rizzo's 185 career home runs, the one he hit Tuesday night was not the most stylish.

The Chicago Cubs first baseman channeled his inner Adrian Beltre and swung so hard he fell to his knees ... but the ball he hit off Detroit Tigers starter Jordan Zimmermann still carried 379 feet and cleared the right field fence.

Rizzo quickly jumped to his feet to circle the bases for his 19th homer of the season. 

However, it was the only offense the Cubs could muster all evening as they fell to the Tigers 2-1.
