Javy Baez is getting a street named after him in Chicago

Chicago is already thanking Javy Baez for his postseason heroics.

DNAInfo reported Wednesday afternoon the City Council approved a sign for "Javier 'Javy' Baez Way" in Humboldt Park.

The Baez portion of the street will be near the Wrigley Field replica (dubbed Little Cubs Field) on the west side of West Luis Munoz Marin Dr.

Here's more background from DNAInfo:


Luis Munoz Marin was the first elected governor of Puerto Rico. The street named after him surrounds Humboldt Park's namesake park in a neighborhood defined by large steel Puerto Rican flags.
