CHICAGO (AP) -- Mark Prior made it clear he didn't rush his return from the disabled list.

Prior allowed only one hit in six innings and retired 18 of his 19 batters Sunday, outpitching Jon Garland to send the Chicago Cubs to a 2-0 victory over the White Sox.

``I felt pretty good,'' Prior said. ``Most athletes know if they're ready or not.''

Corey Patterson's solo homer in the sixth broke a scoreless tie for the Cubs, who took two of three on the road to split the season series at three games apiece. The White Sox won two of three at Wrigley Field in May.

Making his first start since May 27, when a line drive fractured a bone in his right elbow, Prior (5-1) dominated the White Sox, who have the best record in baseball. He struck out three and did not walk a batter.

OK, I bit the bullet and changed the template. Bear with me as I screw around with this new one. I will be adding some of my own pics if I can make them look good.

Right now it's about 120 degrees in my little office- makes it hard to concentrate on this.
