Zambrano Speaks

Carlos Zambrano spoke after the game about the no-hitter. I found this interesting:

It was the first Cubs' no-hitter since Milt Pappas on Sept. 2, 1972. Zambrano said Pappas encouraged him during the Cubs Convention.

"Every time I go to the Cubs Convention he said 'You will be the next one.' I appreciate everything he said to me at the Cubs Convention," Zambrano said.

Pappas must have ESP(n).

Man the more I think about this the more it steams me. If they astros make it to october I hope they get the chance to derail the cubbies.

Bitter? yeah...at least we swept the cubs at wrigley...that's still pretty nice.

I guess Zambranos arm is better - big props on the No hitter

If you want to be angry about this series being played in Milwaukee, blame the Astros ownership/management. This series could have been moved to a neutral site much sooner, and it probably would have been one must closer to Houston than Milwaukee is. Instead, the Astros insisted on waiting, thinking that they'd be able to play in Houston on Sunday and Monday. Obviously, they were wrong. Their players and fans have no one to be angry with except their own management team.
