Nobody has ever looked cooler doing anything than Javier Baez did sliding for and accounting for the game-winning run in the Cubs' walk-off victory against the Blue Jays last night.
In the tenth inning with one out and the bases loaded, Alex Avilla slapped a single into right field which resulted in a freakishly cool play at the plate.

How COOL is that slide? I mean come on.
Being a Cubs fan in 2016 and 2017 seems like it has been an endless reward for Chicagoans, so enjoy it while you can. As a fan of mostly bad teams, I can safely say that good, special things like this team don't last forever (go Reds 😢).
