Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo is one of the most popular players in major league baseball. For another example of his popularity, check out this video of three nuns that asked Rizzo for an autograph on Monday while attending practice in Mesa, Arizona.

Of course, good-hearted Rizzo took a picture with them and handed them an autograph through the fencing.

“We prayed for you,” one of the ladies said as Rizzo responded, “Well it worked.”
