After a lifeless start to their big five-game set against the Milwaukee Brewers, the Chicago Cubs came roaring back on Tuesday with their most encouraging day of baseball in a long while. They took both games of the doubleheader, starting with a resurgent performance by the offense led by Owen Caissie in game one. In game two, however, the story, aside from even more offensive highlights, was a remarkable return for Jameson Taillon.
The right-hander's last start came on June 29, just days before a right calf strain would land him on the injured list.
