Cardinals pitcher Shelby Miller didn't factor into Saturday's decision after surrendering one earned run on four hits and four walks in 6 2/3 innings while striking out seven in his team's 4-1 win over the Nationals.
Miller gave up a run on a double in the top of the first inning but was able to strand a runner on third base to end the first frame. He pitched well up to the seventh, when he walked back-to-back batters with two outs to load the bases before being removed for a reliever, who ended the potential rally. Miller owns a 3.42 ERA and 60:38 K:BB ratio in 84 1/3 innings after back-to-back quality starts. He'll face the Phillies Thursday.
