Cubs 1 Astros 4
Box score. Not Zambrano’s best outing, giving up 4 ER, 6 hits, and 6 walks in 6 1/3, with just 3 Ks. He did, however, provide the Cubs’ only run, with a opposite field solo shot. Gaudin was solid, perfect in 1 2/3 innings of relief, with 2 Ks.
With Big Z’s home run, he moves into first place all-time in home runs for Cubs pitchers, with 14. Fergie Jenkins hit 13, Claude Passeau hit 12, and Charley Root hit 11. Big Z is .351/.351/.526 batting on the year.
The Cubs managed to out-hit the Astros 9 to 6, but the Astros out-walked the Cubs 6 to 0. Ramirez and Soto were each 0-4.
