From Trivia, the baseball game that Harry was watching on his 50th birthday was played on June 20, 1984, suggesting that Harry was born June 20, 1934.

During breakfast at what seems to be a day shortly after Harry's first date with Audrey in early June 1984, Harry reads about a baseball game in the newspaper which, from his description, occurred on July 1st, 1984. But wait, there's more! The calendar on the wall behind Harry is for August 1984.
