If a starting pitcher could ever earn an All-Star berth despite being winless through his first 10 appearances of the season, 66ers left-hander Aaron Miller is that pitcher. 만약 시즌 첫 10경기동안 승리가 없는 선발투수가 올스타전에 뽑힌다면 그건 아마도 아론 밀러(Aaron Miller)가 될 확률이 높을 것이다.
He won't know until next week if he makes the All-Star team, but in the meantime, his poor luck continues.
He retired 12 consecutive batters at one point, but a three-run first inning was his downfall as the Mavericks downed the Sixers 5-3 on Friday in front of 2,534 at Arrowhead Credit Union Park. 지난 4일등판경기에서 밀러는 6이닝 5피안타 3실점투구를 했는데, 한때 12타자를 연속으로 범타시키긴 했지만, 1회에 3실점이나 하면서 결국 패전투수가 되어버렸다.
Miller (0-4) saw his ERA rise to a very solid 3.23 by allowing three runs on five hits in six innings while striking out seven.
"He was very good after the first inning," Sixers manager Jeff Carter said.
"He settled in and pitched well."
But, as usual, he had nothing to show for it. 밀러의 다음 등판일은 내일입니다. 밀러의 지난 등판과 달라진 점이 있다면 인랜드 공격의 유일한 기대치인 카일 러셀이 더 이상 존재하지 않는다는 거겠죠. 과연 올시즌 전반기가 끝나기전에 아론 밀러는 승리투수가 될 수 있을까요?
