Happy Birthday - 9/14

No future Astros with birthdays today, but two former Astros celebrate the day ~

C Cody Clark (33)
Originally drafted by the Rangers in the 11th round in 2003, the journeyman catcher finally made his MLB debut on August 23, 2013 after spending 11 years in the minor leagues. In 16 games with Houston, he hit .105/.128/.132.

LHP Frank Carpin (76)
After pitching for Pittsburgh in 1965 (3-1, 4 saves and a 3.18 ERA), Carpin was picked up by the Astros in the Rule 5 draft. He only appeared in 10 games for the Astros in 1966, compiling a 7.50 ERA and a 2.500 WHIP, and he played his last major league game on September 3, 1966.
