There’s something magical happening in the Bronx. No, I’m not talking about the Yankees’ MLB-best 44-16 record to start the season. I’m talking about the luscious patches of lip lawn cropping up around the New York clubhouse.
The Yankees have a rich tradition of magnificent mustaches. Thurman Munson, Catfish Hunter, Goose Gossage, Sparky Lyle, Don Mattingly, and Jason Giambi all laid claim to having the most luxurious lip hair in the league. And now it appears this year’s team has stumbled upon the ancient rites of their predecessors and are putting the “must” back in mustache.
