Happy birthday, Charlie Hough
Happy birthday to Charlie Hough, who turns 61 today.
I always thought Hough looked like my grandfather. Not the jarrin' grandfather, but the other one.

Charlie Hough in '09
Where’s Charlie plaing this year? You guys think that there’s room in Texas’ rotation for the ole knuckleballer?
Good for the kids or not
I always appreciated the sucking down of Pall Malls ’tween innings.

II always liked
pictures of him smoking and drinking beer. He is an inspiration to pitchers everywhere to learn a knuckler.
Get off my lawn.

My friend Danny asked
Charlie Hough one spring training how he kept the knuckles tough enough to last through a season and he replied ‘Pig Toughener.’ Not sure what that is but I want some. And it was at that spring training that we came up with a good cheer for when the Houghster was on the mound….‘Perplex ’em Charlie!’
"Never go with a hippie to a second location."
Happy Birthday, Charlie
Some of my earliest memories of the Rangers are of him pitching that knuckler. I always thought is was cool when he and Nolan were pitching. Bunch of old geezers in the rotation!
