Happy Birthday, Eric Chavez! Six straight Gold Gloves at third base with the Oakland Athletics—seriously impressive. Rumor has it your glove was so reliable that teammates considered replacing their mitts with cardboard cutouts just to keep things interesting.Your defensive skills were legendary; hitters probably still have nightmares about you snagging line drives and robbing doubles down the line. Here's hoping this birthday is as smooth and effortless as one of your signature plays on a hot corner grounder—and may all life's tricky hops bounce right into your trusty hands!
Enjoy celebrating another year in gold-glove style, Eric!
