This pasted weekend in sports was fairly interesting, but I may have to say the biggest news came out of Major League Baseball.
MLB: Last night, pitcher Carlos Zambrano of the Chicago Cubs pitched the first no-hitter in Cubs history since Milt Pappas did it against San Diego in 1972. Zambrano was coming off of a shoulder problem before last night’s no-hitter. In the American League, Anaheim Angel’s closer Francisco Rodriguez recorded his Major League Record 58th save of the season on Saturday against the Seattle Mariners. The previous record was 57 saves which was set Bobby Thigpen in 1990. Congratulations do out to both pitchers for their accomplishments.
NFL: The biggest news this weekend from the NFL was probably the Houston Texans and Baltimore Ravens game being postponed until Nov. 9th because of Hurricane Ike. Besides that, props go out to Aaron Rogers of the Green Bay Packers who had a stellar performance in a 48-25 victory against the Detroit Lions. As far as Chad Ocho Cinco goes, he definitely needs to step up his game or the Cincinnati Bengals will be one of the worst in the league this season, as they lost 24-7 against the Tennessee Titans. Tonight is the most anticipated game of the week as the Philadelphia Eagles face the Dallas Cowboys in an important division game. Prediction for the game is 27-24 Eagles!
Elsewhere: USC destroyed Ohio State Saturday night (34 - 3), in which was suppose to be one of the best games in college football this season. Juan Manual Marquez defeated Joel Casamayor in an 11th round TKO which will probably lead to a rematch between Marquez and Manny Pacquiao.
Stay tuned for next week’s sports weekend recap!
