• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 161

Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images A magical sendoff for a Cubs legend in a 3-0 win. What a day. We all have so many memories of Kyle Hendricks. Obviously, he started some of the most significant games in modern Cubs history, a statement that can be made without even an ounce of hyperbole. He started the deciding games of both the NLCS and the World Series in 2016, dominating the Dodgers ...2024

Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images The Cubs record their 82nd win in a 1-0 shutout. That game had to make Cubs fans of a certain age remember games of the 60’s and 70’s. The Reds got a complete game with one run allowed. That’s going to win a game, what, 90 percent of the time? Probably more. Five hits, no walks. Tough break, sir. He allowed one double and it cost him. At 34 years of ag...2024

• Cubs 1, Reds 0: A blast from the past

Nico Hoerner scores the only run of this game | David Banks-Imagn Images A pitching gem, and a single run, gave the Cubs an old-fashioned win. One hour and forty-eight minutes! That’s all it took for the Cubs to defeat the Reds 1-0 on a very windy Friday afternoon at Wrigley Field. Before I get to the details of this game, a few notes on that game time.

There is a pretty high amount of randomness in scheduling. I suspect the schedule did the Cubs no favors in 2024.

"Jameson Taillon will be activated from the injured list to make his season debut, and lefthander A."

2023
"In 2023, with key acquisitions such as Dansby Swanson, Cody Bellinger and Jameson Taillon, expectations for the Cubs were higher."

2022
"Aaron Judge, Anthony Rizzo, Aroldis Chapman, Jameson Taillon, Zack Britton, Chad Green and potentially Luis Severino might all be hitting the road."

2021
"Additionally, New York announced that Jameson Taillon will begin a minor league rehab assignment with Scranton this evening."

2020
"In theory, Pirates righty Jameson Taillon would be one such player to watch, but Taillon tells Jason…"

2019
"Sooner than later, the Pirates should follow the Phillies and Yankees in inking their own excellent young righty, Jameson Taillon, for the long haul, Kevin Gorman of the Pittsburgh-Tribune Review opines."

2018
"Pirates pitcher Jameson Taillon says he's "more serious" and has a newfound maturity after being diagnosed with testicular cancer last season."

2017
"On Monday night at PNC Park, exactly five weeks and a few blocks removed from the time and place of his operation, Jameson Taillon got back to being a ballplayer."

2016
"Rookie right-hander Jameson Taillon threw six innings of one-run ball as the Pirates snapped a six-game road losing streak with an 8-1 win over the Mariners on Wednesday to split a two-game Interleague series at Safeco Field."

2015
"While Vogelsong is long in the tooth, he’s a worthy add for the back of the rotation and boasts the veteran and championship pedigree the Pirates will need while prospects Jameson Taillon and Tyler Glasnow continue to develop."

2014
"The Pittsburgh Pirates have designated first baseman Ike Davis for assignment and have added pitcher Jameson Taillon to the 40-man roster."

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 138

Photo by Matt Dirksen/Chicago Cubs/Getty Images The Cubs return home from a terrific trip with a disappointing 5-3 loss.
