Happy Birthday, Matt Palmer! From your MLB debut with the San Francisco Giants in 2008 to joining the Padres in 2012, you've always pitched right-handed but celebrated birthdays like a lefty—unpredictable and full of surprises. Your curveballs baffled hitters almost as much as your birthday candles now baffle fire marshals.Whether it was striking out batters or keeping fans entertained on and off the mound, you’ve consistently delivered memorable moments. Here's hoping this year brings fewer wild pitches at family barbecues and more home-run celebrations (just not against you). Keep throwing strikes—and remember: age is just another stat!
