Zambrano vs. Oswalt (Aug 17)

Tonight's matchup on ESPN appears to be Carlos Zambrano vs Roy Oswalt.
Hmm, I wonder who's catching this one?

Hopefully Kerry Wood will get in this game too.

>Plus, if the Cubs really want some revenge on Roy Oswalt from last year, tonight is the chance to hang a loss on him.

I was at the August 27 Cubs (Wood) vs. Astros (Oswalt) game that the Cubbies lost 15-7. You can view photos from that game here and read the game report from that day here.

I doubt this one will be as Goofy as that game from last year.

The tv listings for tonight's game are a bit odd. My local paper states that the game will air on ESPN at 6pm and on Comcast at 7pm. I'm wondering if the Comcast game is a rerun of last night's game or if there is a typo involved???

I have the PVR set to record the ESPN game, since it is telecast in HD. (Woo hoo!)
