Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on February 09, 1956)

Happy Birthday, Mookie Wilson! May your day roll smoother than that legendary ground ball you sent trickling through Bill Buckner's legs in '86. Mets fans still toast to the moment you turned a simple hit into baseball magic—proving once and for all that sometimes greatness comes from just hitting it hard enough.

Here's hoping your birthday is filled with fewer errors than Game 6 of the World Series, more laughs than Shea Stadium had cheers, and as much joy as you've given Mets fans over the years. Keep swinging strong, Mookie—you'll always be our favorite clutch hitter!
