Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on September 20, 1970)

Happy Birthday, Mike Matheny! From snagging four Gold Gloves behind the plate to stepping into Tony LaRussa's legendary shoes as manager of the Cardinals in 2012, you've always handled pressure like a pro. Clearly, managing pitchers and umpires prepared you well for managing an entire team!

Here's hoping your birthday is filled with fewer curveballs than your career has seen—and may your celebrations be smoother than a perfectly executed double play. Keep swinging for the fences, Mike; you're proof that catchers really do make great leaders (and even better birthday cake eaters). Cheers to another winning year ahead!
