Happy Birthday - 1/17

No future Astros, only former Astros with birthdays today

LHP Jeff Tabaka (48)
Pitched in 42 games for the Astrso in 1995 and 1996

Manager Lum Harris (died November 11, 1996 at 81)
Lum Harris managed the Colt 45's for 13 games in 1964 after Harry Craft was fired, and then was the first manager of the Astros in 1965.  He had a 70-105 record.  For an extremely entertaining interview with Harris that will take you back to an entirely different era of baseball, click here.  You won't regret it.
