PHILADELPHIA -- It took a while, but the Chicago Cubs at last won a series away from Wrigley Field. Now, they hope to keep it going. Travis Wood pitched hitless ball into the sixth inning and the Cubs beat the Philadelphia Phillies 3-0 Sunday, taking two of three at Citizens Bank Park. Anthony Rizzo hit his 14th home run and Starlin Castro added three hits for Chicago. The last-place Cubs had been 0-9-3 in road series this year, and hadnt won a set away from Chicago since last Sept. 9-11. This was the Cubs first series win in Philadelphia since April 2001. The Cubs begin a three-game trip at Miami on Monday. "Its good to win a series on the road," Rizzo said. "We can take that into Miami with us." The Phillies finished with just three hits against Wood (7-5) and closer Neil Ramirez while being shut out for the ninth time this year. Philadelphia manager Ryne Sandberg seemed frustrated that Philadelphias hitters didnt adjust to Wood. "The guy was pitching up in the zone and we were hitting flyballs," Sandberg said. "For us not to make an adjustment and not get on top of some of those balls, those are hittable balls." Wood didnt allow a hit until Ben Reveres one-out single in the sixth. He gave up three hits in eight innings while striking out six and walking three. "I felt really good today," Wood said. "The cutter inside was working well, and they were kind of jamming themselves." The right-hander said he was aware of the potential no-hitter. "You always know about it," he said. "Besides, a guy in the stands let me know about it." Ramirez got his third save. A.J. Burnett (4-6) gave up three runs and eight hits in eight innings. He moved past Hall of Famer Eddie Plank into 50th place on the career strikeout list with his fifth-inning fanning of Luis Valbuena, giving him 2,252. Centre fielder Ryan Sweeney kept Woods pitching line scoreless when he caught Chase Utleys drive to the warning track to end the eighth, finishing on his knees for the grab. It was that kind of day for Philadelphias tepid offence, which ranks near the bottom of the league in several offensive categories. "Our pitching has kept us in games," Sandberg said. "On the offensive side, its about picking things up on offence." Burnett, though, didnt blame his teammates for the defeat. "Our guys aint going out there trying to get out," he said. "He came out and made good pitches against us all game. Its not frustrating on my part because I have a job to do." The Cubs got all of the offence they needed in the first inning. Rizzo staked Wood to an early lead with a solo homer in the first. It marked the eighth straight game in which the Cubs have hit a home run at Citizens Bank Park, totalling 12 drives in that span. "Hes hit quite a few home runs and some big ones, too," Cubs manager Rick Renteria said. The Cubs tacked on a run in the third on Castros RBI single and then made it 3-0 in the sixth on Nate Schierholtzs RBI double. A day after passing Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt to become the Phillies all-time leader with 2,235 hits, Jimmy Rollins went 1 for 4. Philadelphia threatened in the sixth when Rollins singled to put runners on first and second with one out, but Utley and Marlon Byrd popped out. The Phillies won a challenge in the third inning when first-base umpire Gary Cederstroms safe call of Rizzo was overturned after video review. NOTES: Phillies hard-throwing rookie Ken Giles, called up last Sunday, hit 100 mph on the radar gun with three pitches during a scoreless inning of relief in the eighth. ... Castro improved to 13-for-29 lifetime off Burnett. ... To commemorate the 1964 club that nearly reached the World Series, the Phillies wore throwback uniforms from that season. Hall of Famer Jim Bunning, who threw the only perfect game on Fathers Day in major league history for the Phillies against the Mets 50 years ago, tossed out the ceremonial first pitch. And, in keeping with the 60s theme, Art Garfunkel sank "God Bless America" during the seventh-inning stretch. ...

Dylan Olsen scored his first NHL goal Thursday night to help Florida beat the Winnipeg Jets 5-2. Jimmy Hayes, Nick Bjugstad, Tomas Fleischmann and Erik Gudbranson also scored for the Panthers. Tim Thomas stopped 29 shots and Scottie Upshall had two assists. Olsen also added an assist. Olsen and Hayes came to the Panthers in a trade with the Chicago Blackhawks on Nov. 14 for wings Kris Versteeg and Phillippe Lefebvre. "Theyre good young guys. Theyre learning their trade," Florida coach Peter Horachek said. "They both want to be pros. They want to be here." Olli Jokinen and Andrew Ladd scored for Winnipeg. Ondrej Pavelec made 21 saves. The Panthers snapped a three-game losing streak and earned their first points during that span. Olsen broke a 1-all tie at 3:31 of the second period when his wrist shot from the slot beat Pavelec. Upshall got his 100th career assist on the play. "Its awesome. Its your first NHL goal," Olsen said. "It was obviously exciting, but its even better to get the win and get off that three-game losing streak." The Panthers went ahead 3-1 when Fleischmann scored with 2:01 left in the second. A shot by Mike Weaver bounced off Pavelecs blocker, and Fleischmann poked in the rebound. Florida stretched its lead to 4-1 at 5:37 of the third. Bjugstad wrapped the puck around from behind the net and bounced it off Pavelecs leg and into the net. Jokinen, on his 35th birthday, made it 4-2 with 7:15 left in the game when he put the puck through Thomas pads from in front. Hayes scored with 2:44 remaining on a breakaway to make it 5-2. The Jets had two days of rest after their 5-2 win over the New York Rangers on Monday, but the trip to sunny Florida might have distracted them.dddddddddddd "We didnt have very many good players. We didnt play very intelligent, for as good as we were in New York," coach Claude Noel said. "We played way different tonight. We had a hard time getting guys engaged in the game." The loss dropped the Jets back to .500 at 13-13-4. "I hope this is not going to bite us @ the end of the year," Jokinen said. "One game over .500 was a chance to take a step forward." The Panthers had allowed 14 goals in their previous three games, all losses. "Fourteen goals is unacceptable," Gudbranson said. "We really stepped up and took care of our own end first and really forced them into nothing. That was really huge for us today." The Jets took a 1-0 lead on Ladds goal 5:27 in. Bryan Little passed from the right side to Ladd in front, and he wristed it into an open net. Little leads the Jets with 27 points. The Panthers tied it on Gudbransons goal. His slap shot from just beyond the right circle rifled past Pavelec on the stick side at 14:02 of the first. The Panthers had a goal disallowed on video review at 6:58 in the first when it was ruled that the puck and the goalie were both pushed into the net. NOTES: Thomas made his 11,000th NHL save during the first period. ... Panthers RW Tomas Kopecky returned from injured reserve after missing five games with an upper-body injury. ... D Dmitry Kulikov was back in the lineup after being a healthy scratch last Tuesday against Ottawa. ... Jets LW Evander Kane missed his second game with a lower-body injury. ... RW Michael Frolik was a late scratch by the Jets with flu-like symptoms.
