Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on March 09, 1985)

Happy Birthday, Jonah Nickerson! From stepping onto the mound with confidence after being drafted by the Detroit Tigers in 2006 to striking fear into hitters' hearts—your curveball was often as memorable (and puzzling!) to opposing batters as your legendary dedication.

While most pitchers dream of throwing no-hitters and shutouts, you mastered keeping fans on their toes—and sometimes even coaches too. Your commitment made every inning unforgettable. Wishing a fantastic birthday filled with laughs more consistent than umpire strike zones; may this year be an all-star one for someone who always kept baseball entertaining both on and off the field!
