The Cubs had their first day off in 16 days on Thursday, but the players didn’t just sit around and relax. Anthony Rizzo made pizzas at Giordano’s, Jake Arrieta participated in the spoxing charity event at Wrigley Field and Kris Bryant and Justin Grimm were at Soldier Field watching the last Bears preseason game.

Before the Bears played the Cleveland Browns, Bryant and Grimm took a picture on the field with their girlfriends Jessica Delp and Gina Nuccio.
