Let's make this birthday one to remember.

43 years old (Born on October 19, 1982)

Happy Birthday, J.A. Happ! To the tall lefty who debuted with the Phillies back in 2007 and quickly became a fan favorite—mostly because hitters couldn't quite figure out how to handle your towering fastball from that tricky southpaw angle. Winning it all in '08 must have felt pretty sweet; after all, not everyone gets to celebrate their rookie years by hoisting up a World Series trophy!

Here's hoping this birthday is as smooth and memorable as those clutch innings you pitched during Philly's championship run. May your celebrations be filled with laughter, joy—and absolutely no curveballs (unless you're throwing them yourself). Cheers!
