#2. Al "the Mad Hungarian" Hrabosky




When it comes to baseball staches, the mad Hungarian takes the fucking cake. It's a masterpiece. Hrabosky's picture is the definition of the phrase game face. First, he gets you shaking in your cleats with the stare down. Then, just as he's about to pitch, he hits you with the "I'm going to throw this ball directly at your fucking head as hard as I can" look. George Brett would shit his pants twice if he faced Hrabosky. Everything about his dude was intense. Between each pitch he would turn his back to the batter, walk towards second base, vigorously rub the ball between his hands several times, take a deep breath, and pound the ball into his mitt. He would then storm back to the mound, staring down the batter. Awesome.
