Pirates @ Cubs: Taillon vs Hendricks (Game 67)
The train keeps a-rollin’.PIT (33-35): RHP Jameson Taillon (1-0, 1.93)
CHC (46-20): RHP Kyle Hendricks (4-6, 3.05)
First pitch: 7:08pmCST (ESPN)
Hendricks lost in DC on Monday (5.1 IP, 3 ER, 4 K, 4 BB). He’s somehow missed the Pirates so far this year. For their careers, these Pirates are 14-53 (.264) against him. Polanco is 4-11 with a HR.
Taillon, the 24y/o Floridian, made his MLB debut on the 8th and, coincidentally, has pitched against the Mets in both of his starts. He gave up 3 ER in 6 innings in Pittsburgh in his debut for a no-decision, but went 8 scoreless in Flushing on Tuesday for his first win.
Garcia (4-6, 3.93) and the Cardinals are in town next against Lackey (7-2, 2.66) tomorrow night at 7:05pmCST.
Go Cubs!
