Let's make this birthday one to remember.

61 years old (Born on May 14, 1963)

Happy Birthday, Shawn Barton! Here's to the man who made left-handed relief pitching look like an art form—well, at least situationally. Your time with the Mariners and Giants may have been brief, but your knack for stepping onto that mound in tight spots was legendary. Who else could make three MLB seasons feel so memorable?

While some pitchers chase Cy Young awards or Hall of Fame plaques, you mastered something even rarer: being unforgettable as a specialist southpaw reliever. May your birthday be filled with laughter and joy—and may all life's situations call upon you as perfectly timed as those bullpen calls once did!
