White Sox pitcher Dylan Cease ditches iconic mustache originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago
It's a sad day for White Sox fans.
Starting pitcher Dylan Cease shaved his iconic mustache.
That's right. The classic look the 26-year-old pitcher sported during the 2022 season is gone.
Cease's facial hair sparked the organization to hold a Dylan Cease mustache night at Guaranteed Rate Field on one of the nights he pitched a home game. All around the crowd, fans wore his indelible look with fake mustaches.

Hopefully, the Cy Young runner-up decides to regrow the look in hopes of repeating a season similar to that of the one he had during 2022 on the mound.
Cease pitched a career-high 184 innings through 32 starts, recording a 2.20 ERA and 227 strikeouts. He finished second in the AL Cy Young voting and earned second-team All-MLB team honors.
