Cardinals starting pitcher Shelby Miller came up just short of a quality start Wednesday, as he could not finish six innings in a 5-4, extra-innings win over the Reds.
Miller struggled with his control a bit in the game, walking four and allowing one run to come around to score in the second inning on a wild pitch. He gave up one other run in the second, and then one more in the fifth, finishing with three charged to his line in 5 2/3 innings.
Miller gave up six hits and four walks, while striking out three batters and throwing 55 of 95 pitches for strikes. He exited the game in line for the loss, however the Cardinals' offense rallied to send the game to extra innings, where they would win in 16 innings.
Miller remains 12-9 with a 3.19 ERA, heading into his next start, scheduled for Tuesday against the Brewers.
