Pittsburgh may have finally found a young phenom pitcher in Jameson Taillon. He’s been a top prospect for a long time thanks to Tommy John surgery and a sports hernia. But now he’s back and has allowed just three runs and eight hits in 14 innings. He’ll face Kyle Hendricks and the Chicago Cubs. Hendricks has not fared well against the Pirates, allowing 14 runs last season in 19 innings with five home runs.
