PITTSBURGH, March 26 (UPI) -- The only thing Andrew McCutchen is slow in getting to is a haircut. The Pittsburgh Pirates star centerfielder got his first haircut in eight years Wednesday to benefit team charities, according to ESPN.
McCutchen's signature locks will be auctioned off on MLB.com, with proceeds going to charity.
Once a cloud of dust and glimpse of flowing dreadlocks, McCutchen's movements could now be ghostlike on the base paths.
The four-time All-Star and 2013 National League MVP has 143 stolen bases, 36 triples and 200 doubles in his six year career. McCutchen led the National League with a .410 on base percentage and .952 on-base plus slugging percentage, hit .314, and had 25 home runs last season.

McCutchen un-locked: Pittsburgh Pirates star sheds dreads
MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA) - Dr. John Winston Jr. remembers when weary marchers were allowed to camp at the City of Saint Jude 50 years ago during the Voting Rights March from Selma to Montgomery. Winston was a general surgeon at Saint Jude Catholic Hospital at the time.
That particular time was a trying time, he said. We were hoping for change not only in the rights of people, but in medicine also.
After the march, much of the financial support for the City of Saint Jude and the hospital began to erode due to backlash over their involvement in the voting rights campaign.
Dr. Winston and others fought to save the hospital, renaming it Fairview Medical Center.
Due to the fact that the marchers were allowed to camp on the grounds of Saint Jude, the white physicians stopped admitting patients and that cut down on quite a bit of the revenue that was coming in to keep the hospital operational, Dr. Winston explained. That led to many things to keep the hospital going, including changing the name from Saint Jude to Fairview. We were hoping that changing the name would change the outlook or the outcome and help keep the hospital going.
The black physicians that were there who saw a dire need for continuity of care for black patients, organized a hospital. They were not there, at first, to be hospital operators, but they saw the need and took the responsibility. These doctors put their finances at risk, added Robert Taylor III, who worked as one of the first administrators at Fairview Medical Center. Black patients and underprivileged patients could still get hospital admission to get their health needs taken care of.
The facility had to close years later due to financial strain, but the work that was done there left a lasting mark. A legacy organization was recently formed to honor the quest of physicians and employees for equal health care and human rights.
It's designed to keep that part of history alive and keep us ever mindful of the facts that exist and that we must continue the struggle, Dr. Winston said. We must continue the effort to create privileges and opportunities for everybody. The march was an event amongst several others that helped eradicate discrimination and helped us gain privileges we didn't have before, including those of us in medicine.
They're unsung heroes. To take that stress away from black people by continuing on with the hospital operation, is a story that needs to be told, Taylor added. He is the president of the Fairview Medical Center Legacy Organization.
Those re-enacting the 1965 Selma-to-Montgomery march received information about the organization as they arrived at the City of Saint Jude Tuesday in an effort to tell a chapter of local history many feel has gone untold for years.

Quick work by firefighters prevented a shed fire from becoming hazardous and forcing the evacuation of neighbours.
Crews from Guildford were called to a blaze in Barton Road, Bramley at around 1.20pm where they found two sheds well alight
A gas container was inside one of the sheds but firefighters managed to cool it before it became a hazard.
Paul Monkhouse, watch commander, said: It was a large fire in the garden involving two sheds and a closed LPG (liquid petroleum gas) cylinder. We managed to cool it down, if not we would have had to evacuate the local area.
The fire destroyed the two sheds and caused damage to nearby wheelie bins, fence, garden shrubbery and pipe work.
Adrian Knight, who lives in the property next door and had his fence ruined said: I was coming back from Godalming, when I got here I saw the fire engines.
"I am going to wait for the fire brigade to investigate [before clearing up].
There is damage to plastic pipe work, cracking of windows and damage to the doors. They had put it out by 1.50pm.
Mr Knight explained the heat of the fire was high enough to damage his metal bench, along with the fence at the side of his property.
