    Could have been worse. Based on his track record, I don't think we need to worry about Mahle struggling to throw strikes on a regular basis.

    Agreed. Debut jitters I'd say.

    3-1 Pirates as McCutcheon just taps a ball into the outfield.

    They aren't exactly crushing him but they're scoring.

    I hate to see the young guys who had great minor league control come up and struggle with walks, but I'm sure that's part of the process of learning what major league hitters will and won't swing at.

    Another full count to Joey

    Votto is responsible for 30 of Taillon's 106 pitches.

    Votto walks.

    Surely they'll pull him at 107 pitches with nobody out int he fifth.

    If Taillon has any more arm trouble from now on, I will put 100% of the blame on Joey Votto.

    Maybe he's just a little bit nervous making his Major League Debut

    Castillo showed similar wildness in his debut, but has settled down now.
