Exploring the 1995 Indians Media Guide: Part 2: The Mustaches (Pages 17-133)
by Corey
In this, the second installment of our nostalgic journey through the 1995 Indians Media Guide, we'll be channeling our inner Gary Meadows, and counting down the 10 rockingest mustaches in the book. Between the stars, the nobodies, the coaching staff, and everyone in the middle, the '95 Indians were a squad with some quality mustaches.
If you missed Part 1, it can be found here. Also, please forgive my amateurish photography (this would have been a disaster if I'd tried to use a scanner). Now let's get to it!

- Paul Shuey
Clearly, Shuey didn't really figure out the whole mustache game until later in his career. His 1995 'stache is weirdly misshapen. - Dennis Martínez
El Presidente always sported this solid, stately look. - Eddie Murray
Eddie Murray wouldn't be Eddie Murray without an amazing mustache. Alas, his best mustaches came decades earlier, but even in the twilight of his career, Murray had the Carl Winslow look down pat. - Carlos Baerga
Like Martínez's, only bigger. - Matt Turner
Yeah, I'd never heard of him either. He pitched 12 innings for the Tribe in 1994, and was obviously invited to spring training the following year, but he never appeared in a game again. His mustache, however, was timeless—by which I mean it was stuck in 1981. - Luis Isaac
Someday, Louie Isaac's mustache will be in the Indians Hall of Fame, if not the MLB Hall of Fame. Relievers from Assenmacher to Betancourt owe their careers to it. - Tony Peña
I'll never forget when Tony Peña's mustache hit that home run... - Álvaro Espinoza
The glasses really complete the look. - Jeff Newman
In case you don't remember, Newman was the third base coach from 1992 to 1999, when he followed Mike Hargrove to Baltimore. - José Mesa
Most fans probably remember Mesa with his monster goatee, but we in Cleveland remember him with this monster mustache that's yearning to be a goatee.
