Let's make this birthday one to remember.

80 years old (Born on June 06, 1944)

Happy Birthday, Bud Harrelson! You dazzled us all with your slick glove and quick moves at shortstop—proving that the Mets' infield was always safest when you were around. From turning double plays to earning two All-Star nods, you've given fans countless reasons to cheer (and opposing batters plenty of headaches!).

Even though you're retired from baseball now, we bet you still have quicker reflexes than most rookies today. May your birthday be filled with laughter, joy—and fewer curveballs than a ninth-inning rally. Here's hoping this year is another home run for one of the greatest Mets legends ever!
