The Rockies had tied the game at 2 in the top of the fourth on a home run from former Cubs infielder Daniel Murphy.
Baez's two-run shot in the sixth put the Cubs up 5-2.
Newly acquired Cubs outfielder Carlos Gonzalez continued to impress, going 1-for-3 with a run scored and a pair of RBIs against his former team of 10 years.
