Z's No-No

First of all congrats to the Cubs and Zambrano after fishing out what was beginning to look like a desperate situation with the Cubs losing so many games in early September and now up 7.5 games and throwing a no-hitter.

And for what's it's worth, my personal thanks to Carlos Zambrano for knowing a little bit of team history. He knew right away who the last Cub was to throw a no-hitter and had even talked to Milt Pappas about it.

Last night after the game, Z said Milt told him at a recent fan convention that he (Z) would throw the Cubs' next no hitter, the last one coming in 72 by Mr Pappas.

I like players that know something about the history of the team they play on, so thanks Z, for taking the time to fall in love with my favorite franchise!
