Is the DocumentRoot of sub.domain.com the same as domain.com?

In the .htaccess file try something like this (untested):

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (.*)\.sub\.domain\.com
RewriteRule ^site/([0-9]+)(,([0-9]+))?$ index.php?section=$1&article=$3
[L,NS]

Also, be sure that this rule is above any similar rules in the file that
do not use the RewriteCond statement for it's domain...
