49 years ago today, Ken Holtzman throws his 2nd no hitter against the Cincinnati Reds. This came 2 years after his 1st no-hitter against the Braves. By the end of the year, Holtzman had had enough of the Chicago Cubs and asked to be traded, and was sent to the Oakland A’s for Rick Monday.
Iamcubsessed with the Chicago Cubs. My Cubsession started at birth like most Cubs fans. Being a Chicago Cubs fan has taught me how to handle the ups and downs everyone comes across in their real lives. My sports motto has always been "Believe or Leave". I choose to Believe and cheer for the North Siders in a positive way, Go Cubs!
