Charlie Hough is 78 today! 2026 will mark the 60th anniversary of his professional debut, as reported on by the SABR Games Project. The anniversary's in June so there's still time to order a cake.

June 25, 1966: Charlie Hough gets a rough greeting in first professional game – Society for American Baseball Research
@oldbaseballnews.bsky.socialThe January 5 Birthday Team has ten All-Stars and five more who probably could have played in the ASG if it had existed. I'm a big fan of the knuckleball, so seeing Charlie Hough always cheers me up.
I was at the '06 ASG in Pittsburgh when Mark Redman was inexplicably on the AL roster. Just weird.
