Chicago Cubs: A look at five random team heroes

Walkoffs and go-ahead hits are always exciting to witness in a tight game late. For Chicago Cubs fans, there are plenty of times we remember the likes of Billy Williams, Ryne Sandberg, Sammy Sosa, Aramis Ramirez, Javier Baez and Anthony Rizzo playing hero late in a game. They were some of the best of the best to ever play for the Cubs and often came up big. Yet not all heroes wear All-Star uniforms.

The Cubs have won some big games thanks to some lesser-known or unlikely heroes. Even in some seasons where the team was not particularly good, there was always at least one game where the guy you least expected comes through.
