Holy Cow!
So because Hurricane Ike was bearing down on Houston, MLB bigwigs decided to relocate the Cubs/Astros game.
They wanted a "neutral" location. They chose Milwaukee.
I laugh when I hear Astros fans groan, because they are so in the right. It's like making the Red Sox play the Mets in Philadelphia, where everyone there wants to see them fall on their face.
Last minute tickets for seats at Miller Park went on sale Saturday morning. My darling husband got us two amazing bleacher seats for less than $60.
Of the 23,000+ fans there tonight, less than 1% were Astros fans. The rest were ravenous, absurdly loyal Cubs fans.
It was in front of this adoring crowd, myself and Kevin included, that got to see Carlos Zambrano pitch his first no-hitter.
One word: SPECTACULAR.
