Happy Birthday, Jeff Samardzija! From dominating the mound with your blazing fastball and wicked splitter to making hitters question their career choices, you've always been a true ace. Who knew that trading touchdowns at Notre Dame for strikeouts in Chicago would turn out so well? Clearly you made the right call—though we're pretty sure opposing batters disagree!Whether it was dazzling Cubs fans since 2008 or leaving opponents swinging helplessly through thin air, your athletic journey has truly been legendary. Here's hoping this birthday is as memorable as those epic moments on game day—and may all life's curveballs hang perfectly over home plate today!
