Cardinals pitcher Shelby Miller fell to 12-9 Friday, giving up five earned runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out three in 4 1/3 innings in his team's 5-0 loss to the Pirates.
Miller gave up six earned runs in three starts combined after his two-pitch start earlier in August. The five runs matches a season high for Miller, who gave up five runs in 1 2/3 innings in a start in late June. He brings a 3.13 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 154:44 K:BB ratio into Wednesday's start against the Reds.
