Javier Baez helped Chicago Cubs score on a play you've never seen before

His nickname is El Mago (The Magician) for a reason.

Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez was at it again on Thursday, creating havoc on the basepaths that led to two runs for his team -- the difference in a 5-3 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates.

"It really is a magic act," manager David Ross said with a smile after the game. "He just creates havoc."

It's a play you'll likely never see again.
