6 Major Leaguers who could've used some nice shades
If you consulted your Random Internet Holiday Calendar on the morning of April 11, you probably noticed that it's National Sunshine Day. Baseball's back, temperatures are warming and the sun is shining, so today certainly seems like as good a day as any to celebrate our star.
So, before you head off to your family's annual National Sunshine Day barbecue to exchange National Sunshine Day presents, we thought we'd publish a little gift for you to enjoy.
In accordance with National Sunshine Day tradition, here's your roundup of professional baseball players losing track of fly balls in the sun. (Sorry, but it's B.Y.O. Benny Hill Theme.)
Clint Robinson
Dustin Ackley
Denard Span
Hunter Pence
Melvin Upton (pays it forward)
