Let's make this birthday one to remember.

57 years old (Born on November 18, 1967)

Happy Birthday, Tom "Flash" Gordon! May your celebration be as swift and powerful as that legendary fastball of yours. We still remember 1998 vividly—46 saves for the Red Sox, leading the American League with style and flair. Batters trembled at your hard-breaking curveball; fans cheered wildly every time you stepped onto the mound.

Even though years have passed since those glory days on Fenway's field, your legacy remains timelessly impressive (and intimidating!). Here's hoping this birthday brings joy faster than one of your strikeouts—and laughter sharper than a batter fooled by that wicked curve. Cheers to another fantastic year ahead!
