Plenty of young baseball fans look up to Cubs star outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong. At least one of them wants to look like him, too.
Over the weekend, kids in Chicago’s Wrigleyville area held a lemonade stand to raise money for an unusual cause: getting a haircut to match Crow-Armstrong’s Spring Training style.
So imagine their surprise when Crow-Armstrong himself walked right up.
“PETE CROW-ARMSTRONG!” one youngster yelled in excitement.
Another pointed out the PCA fan, already bleached blond, who was hoping to get a (literally) stellar haircut.
“He’s going to get stars in his head if we get enough money,” Crow-Armstrong was told.
The All-Star outfielder signed an autograph for the kids, gave them the money to get the haircut and took a photo with the young fan in question. And it didn't take long for the fan, Madden, to get his new 'do.
The kind gesture is in line with Crow-Armstrong’s advice to children who look up to him when he was mic’d up during the 2025 All-Star Game.
“I hope you be exactly how you are supposed to be,” he said.
Apparently, for at least one young fan, that means looking just like one of MLB’s brightest young stars.
