    Dale Sveum and Theo Epstein saw the upside in Travis Wood while he was pitching for the Cincinnati Reds. Now he is throwing just the way the pitcher the Cubs' new manager and club president envisioned.

    Wood pitched shutout ball into the eighth inning and used some nifty baserunning to set up Anthony Rizzo's go-ahead single as the Chicago Cubs completed a three-game sweep of the Houston Astros with a 3-0 win on Sunday.
