While the rest of the world is still clogging up social media with videos of themselves dumping water on their heads, Cleveland Indians Lonnie Chisenhall is attempting to rally his team to another worthwhile cause.
Saving the mustache.

//platform.twitter.com/widgets.jsIt’s nice to see Chisenhall, currently in the midst of his best offensive season in the Majors, help spread the word. And, as you would suspect, The American Mustache Institute is fully behind the third baseman’s efforts.
“Cleveland has had a brave and good-looking dynasty of lip sweaters that have made it a proud city,” said Dr. Aaron Perlut, former chairman of the American Mustache Institute. “We are deeply grateful and even more proud of the unimaginable strength and good looks of, not only the greater Cleveland community, but the Indians ballclub.”
Hell, even former teammate and 2011 Robert Goulet Mustached American of the Year Award winner John Axford approves.
Dear @TheJK_Kid and @BIGLON8 …your mustaches are manly and reek of sexual wonder. I approve! #Staching

The Tribe is currently a handful of games out of the American League playoff hunt, but if “Lonnie Baseball” can harness the power of his lower nose garden…I’ve gotta think they’ll be playing come October.
