There was a nice little addition to Eric Byrnes’ face the first month of the year — perhaps it was a good luck charm. Byrnsie decided to grow out his ‘stache during his 14-game hitting streak which ended on Sunday. Though the hitting streak came to an end, the ‘stache will apparently live on strong.
“It’ll be back; you guys have not seen the last of the ‘stache,” he said. ‘I’m going with the ‘stache all year. I will have a 1970s porn ‘stache the entire year.”
Apparently it’s not just Byrnsie who’s going with the stache look — the Milwaukee Brewers had it going Monday when I was watching their game. Jason Kendall was rocking a mean one, Carlos Villanueva’s looked money, Ryan Braun’s needed some growth, but Prince Fielder’s was looking strong. Matter of fact, Prince had the mutton chops going, too — he looked tight. Though mustaches were such a great part of the game’s past, I think they should only be reserved for times of need these days. May the ‘stache live on strong with you Byrnsie, Brewers.
