76 years old (Born on May 16, 1949)
Happy Birthday, Rick Reuschel! With 214 wins and three All-Star appearances over your impressive 20-year career, you've pitched more innings than most of us have eaten birthday cake slices. Your legendary sinker baffled hitters so effectively that batters probably still wake up in cold sweats thinking about it.From dominating the mound with the Cubs to shining brightly as a Giant later on—your consistency was timeless. Today we celebrate not just another year older but also those unforgettable moments when you made pitching look easy (and opposing teams miserable). Here's hoping your special day is filled with laughter—and fewer curveballs!
