While he went with more of a beard this past season, the former top prospect took the league by storm in 2024, winning the NL Rookie of the Year and being named a finalist for the Cy Young Award.<\/p>\n Advertisement 4<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Skenes boasts almost 700,000 followers on Instagram \u2013 which pales in comparison to that of his ultra-popular girlfriend, SI Swimsuit cover model Livvy Dunne<\/a>. He makes frequent appearances on her social media and it\u2019s unclear whose idea the change in facial hair ultimately was.<\/p>\n Several members of the New York Yankees \u2014 a team that long held a strict policy about facial hair until this past season \u2014 have sported many manly mustaches. This year\u2019s crop included Austin Wells, Trent Grisham and Max Fried.<\/p>\n In fact, a former New York Yankees star who is now a member of the Blue Jays coaching staff, Don Mattingly, was so famous for his mustache that he was even parodied on The Simpsons for it.<\/p>\n We apologize, but this video has failed to load.<\/p>\n Play Video<\/p>\n Advertisement 5<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Baltimore Orioles star shortstop Gunnar Henderson has been known to rock a mustache at times, including during the 2024 MLB All-Star Game.<\/p>\n RECOMMENDED VIDEO We apologize, but this video has failed to load.<\/p>\n Play VideoMUSTACHE MAY BIG IN BAY AREA<\/p>\n While Movember has become a tradition for many, tied to fundraising for prostate cancer awareness, the San Francisco Giants have their own annual event known as Mustache May<\/a>.<\/p>\n In May, the movement, which started five years ago in the Bay Area, expanded to several teams in the majors with former Giants having moved on.<\/p>\n Advertisement 6<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Mike Yastrzemski is one of the leaders behind the campaign, which helps raise awareness for mental-health issues and benefits the Heart and Armor Foundation, a U.S. charity that \u201caims to protect the health of veterans and provide resources to those struggling with PTSD and other issues.\u201d<\/p>\n Baseball has seen some legendary moustaches in the past, as well.<\/p>\n Former star closers Dennis Eckersley and Rod Beck both boasted notable mustaches, while Rich \u201cGoose\u201d Gossage was a Hall of Famer pitcher with a hall of fame-worthy handlebar moustache.<\/p>\n But perhaps the greatest sports mustache of all-time belongs to the man whose name also described him: Rollie Fingers.<\/p>\n Fingers played 17 years in the majors while sporting a long moustache with the ends curled around like that of a cartoon villain. There was nothing cartoon-ish about his play, though. Fingers was a seven-time all-star, won three World Series, a Cy Young Award, MVP and was inducted into the Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n Read More<\/p>\n Breaking down the Toronto Blue Jays\u2019 Gold Glove snubs<\/p>\n![\"Davis](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1104-davis-schneider-batting-practice.jpg\")
