Javier Baez played for the Chicago Cubs baseball team (2014-2021) and was a crucial part of the team's historic World Series win in 2016. His nickname is “El Mago,” the magician. He was co-MVP for the National League and an All-Star.
Honorary Javier "Javy" Baez Way was dedicated on Tuesday, April 11, 2017 and drew a huge crowd of adults and children from the proud Puerto Rican community and beyond, most were wearing Chicago Cubs hats, shirts, jackets, and Javy's jersey number 9.
