Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on August 19, 1982)

Happy Birthday, JJ Hardy! From dazzling the crowd in Milwaukee as a 2007 All-Star to snagging that well-deserved Gold Glove with Baltimore Orioles back in 2012—you've always made playing shortstop look easier than finding snacks at the concession stand.

May your birthday be filled with memories as smooth as those legendary double plays and laughs lasting longer than baseball rain delays. Remember: even if age tries sneaking up like a tricky slider, you've already proven you're great at hitting life's curveballs out of the park. Enjoy another incredible year—just don't dive headfirst into any cakes; save your epic moves for baseball highlights!
