Business in front, party in back. Mullets and baseball go together like… mullets and hockey. And with Eastbound & Down’s Kenny Powers and the Giant’s Tim Lincecum giving a resurgence to the art form (and it is an art form), we give you The 10 Most Awesome Mullets In Baseball History.
10. Doug Jones
For #10, it was a tough choice between Jones, Corey Snyder and Dan Gladden. We’re going with Jones because he has a superior mustache. And a really rad mustache really ties the mullet look together. Plus, he kinda looks like Jake “The Snake” Roberts.
9. Jose Canseco
The best thing about Jose Canseco’s Latin Mullet is that Canseco is clearly a guy who cares about his appearance. So that means he actually thought that looked good. He’d be wrong. It looks f*cking great!
8. Dennis Eckersley
We’ve heard that Eck doesn’t like his hairstyle being called a mullet. Uh, dude. Calling it a mullet would actually be a compliment. You kinda look like a guy who hangs out at fairgrounds telling chicks he got kicked out of Brooks and Dunn. In other words, pretty cool.
7. Pete Vuckovich
We don’t know much about Pete Vuckovich, but he does look like he’s about to yell, “Channel 9! Breast exam!”
5. John Kruk and Mickey Morandini (Tie)
We hereby declare the 1993 Phillies The Best Mullet Team Ever. And we couldn’t decide between these two manly men from that team, so we’re calling it a tie.
4. Mike Piazza
What’s more awesome – the fact that Piazza had this well groomed mullet… or the fact that this photo was part of an ad campaign for Pert Plus?
3. Mitch Williams
His slimy mullet was just as wild as his delivery. Mitch “Wild Thing” Williams may have the best mullet on the Best Mullet Team Ever.
2. Rod Beck
You gotta think Rod Beck’s terrible/awesome look was the one that most-inspired Kenny Powers. All relief pitchers should look like they just stabbed a man in a biker bar.
1. Randy Johnson
How can it not be? Those long, flowing locks have not wavered (sans his stint with the Yankees) since he entered the league. That’s another reason to hate the Yankees. But he took the mustache/mullet/scumbag look to the next level. And it’s going to look awesome on his Cooperstown plaque.
