From the Cubs Brickyard: (Milwaukee, WI) - It was a home game for the Houston Astros, but you certainly couldn’t tell. The stadium wasn’t the Astros’. The fans weren’t cheering for the Astros. The winning team wasn’t the Astros. And the biggest star on the field wasn’t an Astro.

It was the guy absolutely mowing down the Astros. No-hitting them. Destroying them. Devouring them.

Chicago Cubs ace Carlos Zambrano threw his first no-hitter last night in Milwaukee against the Houston Astros in the first of two rescheduled games, moved from Houston because of Hurricane Ike. Zambrano kept the Astros off-balance all night long, striking out 10, and making the rest look foolish. It was the Cubs’ first no-hitter in more than 35 years.
