NEW YORK – Cubs right-hander Jameson Taillon finished his outing even better than he started, ending another perfect inning with a four-pitch strikeout.
“I think it’s just a compound effect of, once you have a good outing, it starts building,” Taillon said. “The confidence starts building, and I feel like that carries over into my work and my delivery and my game planning and all that. It just gives me a little bit more conviction behind what I’m doing.”
The Cubs bounced back from a rain-soaked blowout loss the night before to beat the Mets 3-2.
