When the Cubs recorded the final out of Game 7 of the World Series, ending a championship drought of 108 years, this spot, titled “Someday,” hit the airwaves.

Directed by Daniel Wolfe via production companies Somesuch and Anonymous Content for agency Wieden+Kennedy, Portland, Ore., the film centers on a young baseball player at a local ballpark living out his dream of a Cubs World Series win. Well the dream is now a reality as “Someday” is today. The kid embodies the positive spirit the current team had throughout the season and during its playoff run–the kind of spirit that’s required to win.
