Chicago Cubs ace Carlos Zambrano pitched a no-hitter against the Houston Astros. The game took place on September 14, 2008 in Milwaukee. The game was re-located from Houston due to Hurricane Ike. It was the first no hitter for a Cub since 1972. Zambrano threw 110 pitches, 73 were strikes. It was his first game back since September 2, 2008 for shoulder tendinitis. The game was considered a home game for the Houston Astros. But due to the proximity from Chicago to Milwaukee the atmosphere resembled a home game for the Cubs.

Houston Astros manager Cecil Cooper felt the atmosphere created an unfair advantage for the Cubs. Cooper stated, "I'm not happy about that. I need to tell the commissioner that. I will tell him that." ESPN.com: Astros Cooper unhappy to play Cubs in Milwaukee
