On Wednesday, Andrew McCutchen unveiled a brand new hairstyle that did away with eight years worth of hair.
As promised, McCutchen’s locks have been collected by the MLB and they have been put up for auction. Bidders can bid on anywhere between one and 10 locks and each winning bid will also get a signed baseball.
Bidding closes on April 2nd. As of this writing, the current bid is $300.
The money collected from the auctions will go towards Pirates Charities which focus on “strengthening the community by supporting organizations and programs aimed at improving the lives of children and adults in the greater Pittsburgh region. Pirates Charities places a special emphasis on supporting youth programs focused on health, fitness and education by developing partnerships with those who share in our mission.”
So, if you’re a Pirates fan, hair collector enthusiast or the philanthropic sort who also likes the thrill of online bidding, this auction may be perfect for you.
