In the ninth inning of an otherwise pretty blah Cubs loss, Chicago shortstop Javier Baez made a daredevil catch along the Steve Bartman wall at Wrigley Field. The out came at the cost of a Cubs fan’s beer and his previously clean sweatshirt, but it was a worthy sacrifice for an acrobatic play.
I know ballpark beers are expensive, and it’s no fun heading home wearing your lager as cologne. But if that’s a cup of Old Style he was trying to drink, Baez is doing the guy a favor.
