MILWAUKEE -- Taylor Jungmann experienced his first poor outing as a Major League pitcher on Tuesday against the Cubs, as the rookie wasn't able to make it out of the third inning. That didn't stop Brewers manager Craig Counsell from maintaining confidence in the young hurler.
Jungmann returned to form Sunday in Milwaukee's 6-1 win over the Phillies at Miller Park. The lanky right-hander struck out a career-high nine batters over 6 1/3 scoreless innings. Jungmann surrendered just three hits and two walks, and he appears to be back on track.
"I was confident he was going to bounce back," Counsell said.
