Wade Miley’s 2021 magic stalls at Coors Field as Reds drop second straight game

Wade Miley’s 2021 magic took a night off at Coors Field. Miley was coming off his first career no-hitter a week ago in Cleveland, but tonight in Denver he had a rough night. Miley allowed 8 earned runs tonight, matching his entire season total in his previous 6 starts entering the evening.

The Reds for a second straight night tried to put together a big comeback. Jonathan India and Eugenio Suarez each homered, and the Reds got a 6-run deficit down to 3. That would be the closest they would get.

W: Marquez (2-4) L: Miley (4-3) S: Bard (4)

Biggest Play of the Game

According to Fangraphs WPA statistic (winning percentage added), the most important play of the game was Wade Miley allowing an RBI single to Yonthan Diaz (runner moved to 3B), giving the Rockies a 3-2 lead.
