Zambrano tosses a No-No
Tuesday, September 16, 2008
First time in 36 years.
The Hurricane in Texas tossed the Cubs-Astros series into upheaval. MLB moved the games to Milwaukee. I wasn't doing anything on Sunday and could have easily gone... and I've never caught a game at Miller Park, but I opted to eat dinner with some friends instead.
On the way home from that dinner, I'm riding on the El and I say to myself: "I wonder how the Cubs did. HOLY SHIT! I MISSED IT!"
I've never been more disappointed about a great thing happening to the Cubs. Not only should I have been there, but I didn't even see the game on TV.
• Cubs Media Guide Trivia tid-bit: Carlos Zambrano has a chance to be the first Cub pitcher since Claude Passeau in the 1940's to win over 100 games in a calendar-decade. He entered 2008 with 82 victories in the '00s. Fergie Jenkins won 140 games between 1967 and 1972, but split those wins across the '60s and '70s.
