Dateline: Des Moines

Kerry Wood pitched three innings and hit a triple for the Iowa Cubs before a 57-minute rain delay Monday night at Principal Park. Wood — on a rehab assignment from the Chicago Cubs — started the Pacific Coast League game against the New Orleans Zephyrs.

He threw 46 pitches (28 strikes). Wood allowed three hits, one earned run, walked two and struck out three. Wood led off the bottom of the third with a triple and scored the Cubs' first run to tie the game at 1-1.
