Glavine wins 300th

CHICAGO – Tom Glavine joined pitching’s most prestigious club with a vintage performance, changing speeds and fooling hitters in the manner that made him one of baseball’s best.

The stylish left-hander earned his 300th victory Sunday night with nervous family and friends looking on from near the Mets’ dugout on the first-base side.

Glavine left with a five-run lead after 6 1/3 innings, and New York’s bullpen held on for a 8-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs.

“It’s over with now,” he said after his hugging his youngest son.

Glavine became the 23rd pitcher with 300 victories, the first since former teammate Greg Maddux reached the milestone in 2004 while with the Cubs. The 41-year-old Glavine is only the fifth lefty to win 300.
