Perhaps on other social media, you've been inundated with images and sound bites of Justin Timberlake. I'm not living that life. Around here, we celebrate May 1st the right way:

| 1977 Topps #633 Lee/Carlos May (BLB) |
Fun Fact #1: Carlos wore number 17 when he was with Chicago, meaning the back of his jersey displayed his birth day!
Fun Fact #2: In both 1972 and 1973, the May brothers each received MVP votes! (Carlos in the AL and Lee in the NL)
Fun Fact #3: They also were All-Stars in both 1969 and 1972 on opposing teams. According to Carlos, his brother was laughing at first base when he struck out against knuckle-baller Phil Niekro to end the 1969 game (Lee also struck out in his lone at bat that year). In 1972, Lee was selected as the starting first baseman and went 1-4 with an RBI. Carlos was a reserve that year but did not see game action.
