Anthony Rizzo led off the 13th with a single off Matt Reynolds (0-1) and went to second on Ben Zobrist's sacrifice. Addison Russell was walked intentionally before Heyward drove in his third run of the game.
Trevor Cahill (4-4) worked a perfect inning in a series in which all four games were decided by one run.
The Cubs were staring at a second straight loss when Russell led off the ninth with a double against Santiago Casilla. He went to third on a wild pitch and scored on Heyward's single up the middle to hand Casilla his seventh blown save.
Mets 5, Nationals 1: Curtis Granderson and Jay Bruce had two-run homers, and starter Seth Lugo allowed one run over seven innings for host New York.

Blue Jays 5, Rays 3: Russell Martin had a tiebreaking two-run homer in the eighth to help Toronto win at Tampa Bay.
White Sox 13, Twins 11: Jose Abreu hit two three-run homers, and Tim Anderson's two-run double in the top of the 12th boosted Chicago.
Red Sox 1, A's 0: Eduardo Rodriguez allowed one hit over eight innings, but reliever Craig Kimbrel yielded a run-scoring double to Khris Davis in the ninth as host Oakland prevailed.
Angels 4, Mariners 2: In Seattle, Albert Pujols and C.J. Cron hit back-to-back home runs and six relievers shut down the Mariners after starter Matt Shoemaker was hit in the head with a line drive.
