We mentioned in yesterday's A.M. Clicks the amazing prank A's reliever Sean Doolittle pulled off when he pretended to shave his trademark beard. This, of course, was a great excuse for SI to update its "Best Beards in Sports History" gallery, of which I cherry-picked my favorites above.

LOL Cubs

The Cubs got off to an 0-2 start and couldn't even get their uniforms straight on Thursday as leftfielder Junior Lake wore the wrong one during an afternoon game against Pittsburgh. In other uniform news, David Ortiz had the best-selling jersey from MLB.com’s store during the offseason, followed by teammate Dustin Pedroia. Nobody on the Cubs was in the Top 20.
