HOUSTON -- Derek Holland has shaved his head, and the "Wild Thing" look is no more.
Holland didn't cut his hair because he's trying to change his luck. It's all about there being no excuses as he gets ready for Saturday's start against the Astros.
"People want to blame my hair for the way I pitch," Holland said. "It's not my hair throwing the baseball."
Holland sported the "Wild Thing" haircut for a while, but the look really gained notoriety after he met the actor Charlie Sheen -- who portrayed Ricky "Wild Thing" Vaughn in the "Major League" films -- in Anaheim.
