    That's not even close to accurate.

    I don't drink Bud.

    First no-hitter at Miller Park?

    I wish your pets could speak. Or write. Then they'd probably pen a best-seller for dogs called "Daddy Drinks Because Dusty Baker Is A Fucking Asshole."

    Yes ... one week after Chris Young flirted with a perfect game there.

    Anyone hear what the attendance was? The stands looks solid from the shots I saw on ESPN.

    Best line of the night by Astros TV analyst Jim Deshaies, with two strikes and two outs in the ninth...
    "The fans really getting into it for a neutral-site game."

    If I were the Mets, trying to catch the Cubs for best record in the NL, I'd be p---ed right now, knowing Bud just gave the Cubs two more home games and two (maybe three) less road games.

    A little more than 23,000.

    I heard the broadcasters say 23,000.

    That's the working title of my wife's book.

    They moved on our Wires wire, where we get AP digests and such. They should have been on the Sports wire, though.

    I heard they charged "Marquee game" prices. The Brewers charge higher prices for games against the Cubs and Cardinals and some interleague series such as the one a few years back against the Yankees. Makes sense since it was an Astros home game and they wanted to suck as much money from Cubs fans as possible.
