Thanks to one of the Astros’ most famous fans, Dusty Baker will now head into retirement with another shiny piece of hardware that may, literally, outshine the now-former manager’s two World Series rings.
As tributes poured in for Baker, who retired on Wednesday after 26 seasons as a manager, the 74-year-old received a special announcement from Houston hip-hop legend and avid Houston sports fan Paul Wall on Instagram.
After shouting Baker out for his successful Astros run, Wall then declared he had a present for Baker in the form of the famed rapper’s signature accessory: custom-made “grillz,” which are removable jewelry worn over the teeth.
