After surrendering four runs in a third of an inning in his spring debut, Braves pitcher Shelby Miller stepped his performance up Thursday, allowing one earned run on two hits and one walk in three innings aginst the Yankees while striking out two.
"You always want to do better than the last time out. It wouldn't have been too much harder to beat. It was a pretty rough outing," Miller said after the outing, per MLB.com. "Today was just more trying to learn from last time and just getting more feel for the [strike] zone, which I felt like we did a good job of."
Miller added that he wasn't working on anything in particular in Thursday's outing. He needed 47 pitches to complete his three innings of work.
