Ronda Rousey, if you’re bored and looking for something to do on a slow night, may I suggest dropping in on an Iowa Cubs game? It will be a cheap night of entertainment, considering Triple-A outfielder Anthony Giansanti has you on the player’s pass list for free tickets. Via the Des Moines Register:
Giansanti, a fan of Rousey’s, decided to not only put her name on the player’s pass list but after the urging of his teammates also tagged her in posts from his account @GianSanity with information that included when the game starts. Giansanti said he’s left a ticket in her name for every game he’s played with Iowa this season.
“She’s an incredible fighter,” he said. “I’m a big UFC fan and she’s also incredibly good looking. I mean, why not?”

While Giansanti’s offer has gotten a response from outlets like Sports Illustrated, he still hasn’t heard anything back from Rousey herself. He did, however, get a reply back from Rousey’s mother, AnnMaria De Mars…
@DrAnnMaria @PROMMA very true. I've been selfish…can't wait to see her defend her title! Then perhaps at a baseball game 😏 #FingersCrossed

Now that’s what I call persistence! The “thing” in Brazil? UFC 190 on August 1, where Ronda Rousey will defend her Women’s Bantamweight Championship against Brazilian slugger Bethe Correia.
Oh, and one more tweet from Anthony for the ladies…
