75 years old (Born on July 28, 1949)
Happy Birthday to the legendary Vida Blue! Rumor has it, radar guns still shudder at hearing your name. After all these years, we're pretty sure no pitcher ever looked cooler winning MVP and Cy Young in the same season than you did back in '71. Three World Championships later, you're officially baseball royalty—hope your arm hasn't gotten tired from lifting trophies!You've struck out 2,175 batters over an amazing career spanning nearly two decades—effectively sending generations of hitters home frustrated. May this year bring as much joy to you as your fastballs brought despair to opposing lineups. Cheers!
