Former Astros birthdays today:
LHP Randy "Big Unit" Johnson (48)
Randy is well-remembered by Houston fans for his dominance during the 1998 playoff run. Obtained at the trade deadline, he went 10-1 in 11 starts with a 1.28 ERA and a 0.984 WHIP. He helped to get the Astros to the post season, but even with an impressive 1.93 ERA and a 1.000 WHIP, he went 0-2 and Houston lost the NLDS to San Diego 3-1.
1B Craig Cacek (57)
Craig's sole major league experience consisted of 7 games played for Houston during the 1977 season. He did manage to get his one hit in the bigs, but that's about it.
