Look at this baseball card. Do you even see anything other than that mustache? First class. Most men only dream of growing such an impressive lip of hair. That mustache patrolled the outfield for parts of two decades (74-77, 81-83). He was acquired in the trade with the Padres that cost the Cubs fan favorite Glenn Beckert, but Morales and his mustache would have a very respectable Cubs career. He even scored a run in the 1977 All-Star Game.

Morales celebrated his 59th birthday last week.
