Let's make this birthday one to remember.

80 years old (Born on March 11, 1945)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Dock Ellis! Who else could pitch a no-hitter while seeing colors brighter than his uniform? Your 1970 psychedelic masterpiece remains baseball's most mind-bending achievement—proving once and for all that reality is overrated when you've got talent (and apparently, LSD).

Beyond your colorful pitching adventures, you were an All-Star pitcher who brought passion and personality to every game. Baseball history wouldn't be nearly as entertaining without your fearless spirit on—and off—the mound. Here's hoping today brings you joy that's just as unforgettable—but maybe slightly less hallucinogenic—than that famous day in San Diego!
