Literary birthday greetings: Manny

May 30, 2011

Come on, admit it, won’t you miss hearing “Manny being Manny?” The one-time sure-fire Hall of Famer turns 38 today. I wonder if the authors of Becoming Manny: Inside the Life of Baseball’s Most Enigmatic Slugger would consider a revised edition?

Also born this date, actual Hall of Famer Amos Rusie (1871).

Bonus nicknames of the day: Dixie Upright, Twink Twining.
