YouTubers thefourmonkeys, who specialize in stop-motion Lego films, put together the highlights of the Cubbies' miraculous Game 7 in a sweet little video published Tuesday.

It's just over a minute long, but still manages to include not only the game highlights, but fan antics, including Ohio native LeBron James pulling off a Hulk-like muscle flex when his Cleveland Indians tied things up. Even the infamous rain delay is reproduced -- with what might possibly be a plain white paper towel representing the tarp.

Cleveland faithful, you might want to pass on Lego for Playmobil or something for a few days. There's always next year.
