Jameson Taillon pitched eight outstanding innings and combined with Adbert Alzolay on a two-hitter, and the visiting Chicago Cubs spoiled Carlos Rodon's debut with the Yankees by beating New York 3-0 on Friday night.
Cody Bellinger homered and Nico Hoerner hit an RBI single off Rodon to help the Cubs win for the first time in nine all-time regular season games against the Yankees in the Bronx.
Taillon returned to Yankee Stadium after winning 22 games for the Yankees over the previous two seasons. Taillon then got three easy groundouts in the eighth. He struck out four, walked two and threw 102 pitches, two shy of his season high. After Rodon got five outs in the air over the first two innings, Bellinger blasted a fastball about halfway up the second deck in right for a 1-0 lead to open the third.
