CHICAGO -- Travis Wood and the rest of the Chicago Cubs pitchers are starting to turn the ninth spot in the batting order into a productive part of the lineup. Wood hit a fourth-inning grand slam off Jake Peavy and allowed two runs in six innings to lead the way in an 8-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox at Wrigley Field on Thursday. "Our whole staff has been hitting," Wood said, after his grand slam gave Cubs pitchers 19 RBIs for May, a National League record for one month according to the team. "We take pride in our hitting, being able to help ourselves out, just being able to handle the bat. "That way were not just a dead out." Wood wasnt the only Cubs player hitting home runs against the White Sox on a day with the wind blowing out 24 mph. Nate Schierholtz and Luis Valbuena each hit their sixth home runs of the year in an 11-hit effort by the Cubs offence, keying a fourth straight win overall and third consecutive convincing victory over their crosstown rivals. However, it was Wood (5-3) who broke open the game with his fifth career home run and second this year in the fourth inning with the Cubs leading 2-1. "Woody can flat-out hit," Cubs manager Dale Sveum said. "He hits any fastball. Theyve (pitchers hitting) all been a big key to these wins. "Theyre not just getting a single and driving a run in. Theyre getting two-run doubles and home runs, and were able to put games away." Welington Castillo and Valbuena started the fourth inning with singles and Jake Peavy hit Darwin Barney before Woods grand slam on a 2-1 pitch. It was the first grand slam by a Cubs pitcher since Jason Marquis hit one Sept. 22, 2008, in New York against the Mets and first by a Cubs pitcher in Wrigley Field since Burt Hooton hit one Sept. 16, 1972, against the New York Mets. "I dont like it," Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo joking about Cubs pitchers driving in 19 runs in May. "Its embarrassing all of us (position players)." Rizzo added: "Its great. Its unbelievable." The last time any teams pitching staff had more than the Cubs total of 19 runs batted in for a month was 1940 when the Detroit Tigers had a month with 20. Peavy (6-3) allowed six earned runs and eight hits in four innings. He also gave up four straight hits in the second inning for two runs that put the Cubs ahead for good as they went on to clinch this years Crosstown Cup -- the first time theyve won the series since 2007. It was Peavys worst start since giving up six runs April 9 at Washington in 5 1-3 innings. "I think man for man everybody in here will tell you we got outplayed," Peavy said. "We didnt play with the intensity we need to play with. We didnt make plays. We didnt make pitches. We didnt get hits. "We played, just not good ball baseball." With two outs in the second, Valbuena doubled, Barney singled him home, Wood singled and David DeJesus singled in Barney for a 2-0 Cubs lead. Schierholtz homered leading off the fifth against reliever Nate Jones for a 7-1 lead and Valbuena hit a leadoff homer off Brian Omogrosso in the eighth. "We came out this series, we struck the ball well, played great defence and the pitching has been outstanding," Wood said. "We played just great all-around baseball." Paul Konerko drove in the first two White Sox runs, one with a third-inning, two-out single and the other on a double in the sixth after Alex Rios had doubled. Alejandro De Aza drove in the final run with a ninth-inning single. The White Sox came into the series at .500 (24-24) for the first time since April 8 after winning five of six games. "Anytime you have three games like this at any point its discouraging," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "You know, again, youve got to regroup and go. "Weve show that we can play a lot better than this and were going to have to prove it again." NOTES: The Cubs called up right-hander Zach Putnam from Triple-A Iowa and sent down right-hander Alex Burnett, a former Baltimore pitcher whom they signed off waivers Monday. Putnam had one inning of scoreless relief. ... A day after hitting three home runs in one game, Cubs catcher Dioner Navarro was back on the bench with starting catcher Welington Castillo in the lineup. ...

Former Dallas Cowboys?defensive end Greg Hardy, who remains unsigned after a tumultuous 2015 season revolving around his domestic violence case in North Carolina, has been arrested on a cocaine possession charge in Texas.Jail spokesman Tim Weed in the Dallas suburb of Richardson said Hardy was arrested early Monday and booked on a charge of possession of a controlled substance. He was released on $5,000 bond Monday afternoon.The 2013 Pro Bowl player was pulled over late Sunday night for failure to signal a left turn, and a search of his vehicle revealed what police said was cocaine and an item containing marijuana remnants, according to police documents.Hardy told police he didnt know what was in a bag that police said contained cocaine, and Hardy said somebody gave him the bag at a party the previous night.Police said a substance that tested positive for cocaine was found in his wallet, but Hardy said he had been passing his wallet around at the party because he was paying for everybody and that must have been when the baggie was put in his wallet, according to the police report.Hardys agent, Drew Rosenhaus, declined to comment. The NFL didnt immediately respond to a request for comment.The police report also made reference to a couple of gun club membership cards in Hardys wallet. When the NFL suspended Hardy for 10 games over his domestic case, the league cited the presence of guns in his apartment in the ruling. An arbitrator reduced the ban to four games.Hardy, 28, played for the Cowboys last season after spending the first five years of his career with the Carolina Panthers. He had six sacks in 12 games for the Cowboys in 2015 after missing the first four games of the season due to a suspension stemming from a domestic violence incident that occurred while he was playing for the Panthers in 2014.Hardy had two sacks of New England Paatriots quarterback Tom Brady in his first half of a game last season, and he collected four sacks in his first four games, but he had just one sack and two half-sacks in the final eight games.dddddddddddd. The Cowboys coaches credited him with 35 tackles and a team-high 32 quarterback hurries. He also had five tackles for loss, an interception and a forced fumble.Hardy did not produce the sack total the Cowboys had in mind when they signed him to a one-year deal worth as much as $13.1 million last year. That deal contained no guaranteed money, and because of the suspension and failure to reach any of his sack incentives, Hardy earned roughly $8.8 million.He also earned attention off the field. In his first extended public comments after the completion of his suspension, he said he would come out guns blazing and made inappropriate comments about Bradys wife. On at least two occasions, Cowboys coach Jason Garrett had to speak to Hardy about his Twitter feed. Owner and general manager Jerry Jones also had a sit-down meeting with Hardy later in the season.Although the charges from his 2014 domestic violence case were dropped and Hardys record was expunged, Deadspin released photos in November from the night of the incident between Hardy and ex-girlfriend Nicole Holder that showed bruising to her back, jaw and feet.In an interview with ESPN, Hardy said he was an innocent man and denied he had ever put his hands on a woman. Of the photos, he said: Pictures are pictures, and they can be made to look like whatever they want to.Hardy was a Pro Bowl selection in 2013, when he had a career-best 15 sacks. He has 40 sacks in his career.ESPN Cowboys reporter Todd Archer and The Associated Press contributed to this report. ' ' '
