Happy Birthday, Reggie Jackson! The man who made October his personal playground—your legendary three-home-run performance in Game 6 of the '77 World Series still has pitchers waking up at night. Rumor has it baseballs are still orbiting Yankee Stadium from your mighty swings.Even today, fans recall your swagger and clutch hitting as vividly as ever. Your iconic style defined an era; sunglasses indoors never looked cooler than when you wore them. Here's hoping this birthday is a grand slam celebration worthy of Mr. October himself—just don't swing too hard blowing out those candles!
