Marty Castillo was drafted by Minnesota in the twenty-first round in 1975, but did not sign.

It does not appear that Bobby Byrne and Tommy Byrne are related. Minor league catcher Guy LaValliere is the father of major league catcher Mike LaValliere.
Nobody ever makes a fuss about the last baby of the old year.
