Taillon's stellar run ends with loss in Toronto, now opportunity awaits for Cubs. McGrawDHSports Cubs
So losing Sunday's series finale to the Blue Jays wasn't a huge issue, but the Cubs have to be very disappointed to see pitcher Jameson Taillon's run of success run out.
Taillon got off to a terrible start after signing with the Cubs as a free agent over the winter. His season ERA peaked at 8.10 on May 20 and was still soaring at 6.15 heading into the game against the Yankees, Taillon's former team. During his last six starts before Sunday, his ERA was 2.17. "When an inning's building and you're up around 30, 40 pitches, it's kind of like a fighter," Taillon said."I just want to get back in the dugout, regroup, get in my corner and figure out what's going on.
The Cubs scored twice in the first inning on a 2-run double by Dansby Swanson, who had 2 of the team's 5 hits.
