Cubs' Anthony Rizzo: 'I Am Sleeping With This Tonight'

CHICAGO (CBS) -- When Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo finally goes to bed tonight (probably tomorrow), we know who he's sleeping with.

Well, grammatically speaking, it's "what" he's sleeping with.

He joked that he's holding onto the baseball that was used in the final out, sending the Cubs to the World Series after a 5-0 win against the Dodgers in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series and sending Wrigleyville into pandemonium.

Rizzo gave the ball a kiss and said, "I am sleeping with this tonight. We're going to the World Series!"
