No future Astros with birthdays today, but one former Astro is celebrating the day ~
RHP Horace Guy "Dooley" Womack (75)
Where did all the colorful names go? After coming to Houston in a trade with the Yankees in December 1968, Dooley played in 30 games for the Astros in 1969 with a 2-1 record, a 3.51 ERA and a 1.344 WHIP. His career in the majors from 1966 to 1970 was a long time coming. According to his wikipedia page, he spent 10 years in the minors in which "he appeared in 349 minor league games, going 65-55 with a 3.13 ERA in 1041 1/3 innings."
