Complete Batter vs Pitcher
Wood, who has a career record of 65-45, has won three of his last four decisions. The 27-year-old right-hander allowed three runs and six hits over eight innings Tuesday in a 5-3 win over the Colorado Rockies.
After struggling early in the game, Wood retired 12 of the final 13 batters he faced to improve to 3-1 in five starts since coming off the disabled list following a triceps strain.
"I felt real strong. That has been a plus coming back," Wood said. "At times I started get winded at the end, but I felt good in the eighth. That was a good sign."
