Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on November 21, 1980)

Happy birthday, Hank Blalock! You swung your way into baseball lore with one sweet swing after another—especially that legendary All-Star Game home run back in 2003. Your steady bat and clutch performances had pitchers tossing aspirin instead of balls!

Here's hoping today brings you as many smiles off the diamond as those countless times you've thrilled fans on it. May this year be filled with grand-slams worth of happiness (minus all those pesky fastballs). Enjoy celebrating a timeless career that's still putting smiles on faces—and swings into memories—even now.

Have an amazing day—you've definitely earned extra innings of cake!
