Cubs right-hander Jameson Taillon wrapped up catch play and drills Monday afternoon and then wandered into the bullpen at Citizens Bank park to watch Ben Brown’s side session.

Brown locked in his bread-and-butter pitches first, his fastball and curveball, and then worked his newest pitch, the changeup.

“The cool part is, I get to go sit on the bench [Monday] night and go over it with Ben a little bit, talk about what he liked and didn’t like,” Taillon said in a conversation with the Sun-Times earlier this week.
