Diver Recovers Anthony Rizzo Wedding Ring Lake Michigan

Anthony Rizzo, the 2016 Chicago Cubs World Series champion, lost his wedding ring while on a boat in Lake Michigan after it slipped off his finger when he shook his hands dry. The ring was recovered by Yohei Yamada, a professional diver who specializes in retrieving lost valuables from the lake, and Rizzo rewarded him with a generous tip. Yamada frequently recovers hundreds of items each summer, including phones, keys, and high-value watches, turning his skill into a steady income. Rizzo, who last played for the New York Yankees in 2024 and is currently a free agent, has not publicly commented on the incident. The diver clarified that it was Rizzo's wedding ring, not his World Series ring, that was recovered. Rizzo’s wedding ring holds special significance as he proposed to his wife on a boat trip on Lake Michigan, and the couple recently welcomed their first child.
