Zambrano threw a no hitter at Miller Park. Brewers lost and are now tied for the Wild Card. Miller Park is Wrigley Field North for real, the Brewers will be on the outside looking in for the playoff race in a few days. Being a Brewers fan is more and more difficult every day.

Maybe Wrigley field finally collapses, the Brewers are contracted out of existance, and the Cubs move in permanently...changing their name to the Chicago Cubs of Milwaukee.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/devil.gif

I think I'd quit watching baseball at that point, rather than join many of their "fans".

I was at the game, and what my wife wondered was- wasn't this supposed to be a home game for the Astros?? Why were they in the vistors dugout and bullpen???

I'd bet that the home clubhouse was on lockdown (coaches offices, video rooms, weight rooms, etc.), whereas the visitors locker room had standard access (in this case, more usable amenities). A lesser thought could be that Houston's dugout is on the 3rd base side at Minute Maid. Even lesser, that they wanted to feel like they normally do at Miller Park.

Some pre-emptive reporting done by CBS? Nope, just a good old-fashioned FAIL

I read that Cecil Cooper wanted to use the visitors locker room as he was already familiar with it and its staff. One of the Cubs commented that they walked past the home locker room - they didn't even know where it was.

When the Indians and Angels played here in April of 2007, it was the same situation. The Indians chose to use the visitors' dugout. I think I heard that it was because the manager's office, video room, and some other private room were locked in the home locker room, or something like that.
