Shelby Miller Leaves Early With Elbow Injury
Shelby Miller (elbow) left a 10-8 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies early on Monday after feeling a pop in his right elbow, manager Pat Murphy said. Miller entered a 6-6 game to pitch the top of the eighth inning, but he had to come out after allowing back-to-back hits. Those runners ended up scoring, so Miller was charged with giving up two ER without recording an out. The 34-year-old, whom the Brewers acquired from the Arizona Diamondbacks on July 31, has still pitched to a more-than-respectable 2.74 ERA with a 1.04 WHIP and 54:15 K:BB in 46 innings this season. Unfortunately, though, Miller could end up back on the 15-day injured list after missing most of July and the first week of August because of a forearm strain. Miller came off the IL to make his debut with the Brewers on Aug. 9. Since then, he has coughed up six earned runs on nine hits and notched 14 strikeouts against four walks over 9 2/3 frames.
