Taillon earned his first major-league victory Tuesday, allowing just two hits and a walk while striking out five over eight shutout innings in a 4-0 win.

EDGE Analysis

Taillon no-hit the Mets for six innings before hanging a seventh-inning curve ball to Curtis Granderson, who sandwiched a seeing-eye single between infielders Jordy Mercer and Josh Harrison. Taillon threw 91 pitches (including 61 strikes), keeping New York off balance with three pitches. He made a spot start with Gerrit Cole (triceps) placed on the disabled list, but it's hard envisioning Pittsburgh sending him back to Triple-A.
