Let's make this birthday one to remember.

45 years old (Born on June 27, 1980)

Happy birthday, Luis Rodriguez! Hard to believe it’s been years since you first dazzled Twins fans at shortstop back in 2005, flashing leather smoother than stadium nacho cheese and swinging bats stronger than the Metrodome's airflow. From clutch hits to expert double plays, you've truly left your mark!

May your birthday celebration have fewer errors than your fielding stats and more excitement than your major league debut. Keep rounding life's bases with the charm and agility that made you a fan favorite—we'll always cheer for our favorite #ShortStopLuis! Here's hoping this next year brings victories sweeter than ballpark ice cream sundaes!
