85 years old (Born on March 06, 1940)
Happy Birthday to the legendary Willie Stargell! You knocked 475 home runs out of ballparks and into our hearts, leading your beloved Pittsburgh Pirates to unforgettable World Series victories in '71 and '79. Your powerful swing was so iconic that baseballs still tremble at the mention of your name.In 1979 alone, you didn't just win a championship—you took home both National League MVP honors AND World Series MVP awards. Clearly, one trophy wasn't enough for someone as extraordinary as "Pops." Here's hoping today brings joy worthy of all those towering homers—just don't blow out candles with too much power!
