When a hard one up the middle looked destined for center field, the Cubs were about to find themselves just a couple batters away from the tying run coming to the plate. But Javy Baez wanted to end things right there.

So El Mago did what El Mago does, and with some help from his friends on the infield, he locked down the win:
