Braves starting pitcher Shelby Miller (5-15) lasted only 3 2/3 innings Wednesday in a loss to the Blue Jays, giving up five runs (four earned) on seven hits and a pair of walks.
With 21 consecutive starts without a win under his belt and a matchup against the high-powered Toronto offense, few could have bet on Miller ending his ignominious streak. Indeed, he took the loss for the sixth consecutive start, and it seems all these defeats are starting to get to the young hurler, who now owns an 8.36 ERA and 2.00 WHIP in three September starts.
