Happy Birthday to the ultimate utility man, Ryan Freel! Whether diving headfirst into bases or leaping fearlessly for impossible catches, your hustle and heart made every game unforgettable. Fans from Toronto to Cincinnati still reminisce about your fearless style—rumor has it even the outfield walls miss you!From stealing bases faster than we could say "safe!" to playing nearly every position on the diamond (we're pretty sure you would've pitched if they'd let you), your versatility was legendary. Today, we celebrate a player whose passion and humor brought joy both on and off the field. Cheers to you, Ryan—forever baseball's favorite sparkplug!
