Let's make this birthday one to remember.

43 years old (Born on July 13, 1982)

Happy Birthday, Yadi! You're the only catcher who can make stealing second base look harder than solving a Rubik's cube blindfolded. From your clutch hits in October to those laser-sharp throws that left runners shaking their heads—your glove has been baseball’s Bermuda Triangle for stolen bases.

Thanks for giving Cardinals fans unforgettable moments like the 2006 and 2011 World Series championships; we still replay them whenever Cubs fans visit. May this birthday bring you as much joy as you've brought St. Louis—and may all life's curveballs be easier to handle than an Adam Wainwright breaking pitch!
