‘Member? When The Cubs Were Always In Last Place?

Whas Happened In Sports Last Night

• MLB: Carlos Zambrano paved the way for the Chicago Cubs to pulverize their NL Central counterparts. Isn’t that sentence mystifying? Not this year. The Cubs scored five runs in the fifth-inning to steal the game. Chicago 7, Milwaukee 1. [NY Times]
• Superliga: 16,000 raging Houston Dynamo fans were given a treat when their club beat Mexican “powerhouse” Pachuca, leading the club to its first Superliga finals. Can you smell the million bucks, Houston? Pachuca 0, Houston 2. [Houston Chronicle]
• MLB: East merged with West Tuesday night when Ichiro Suzuki made history by becoming the youngest player in professional baseball history to reach 3,000 hits. Of course, reports are funneling in that Ty Cobb’s grave is churning. Seattle 10, Texas 11. [AP]
