It’s no secret that Shelby Miller, a pitcher for the Arizona Diamondbacks, recognizes how poor he pitched in 2016. He is not shying away from this fact. At the same time, he refuses to dwell on this season’s results.
“Obviously it’s been a rough year and I haven’t thrown near as good as I obviously would’ve liked to,” Miller said. “There are good games in there and to get a game like this tonight is huge. I want to just build off this and try to end 2016 strong.”
Miller’s first 18 starts were not pretty. More of the same was expected last Friday against the Orioles.
