After another solid outing from rookie pitcher Bobby Miller, there were questions about why manager Dave Roberts pulled him early.
Miller went six innings of one hit, one run ball against the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday night, en route to another Dodgers win. But once again, he didn’t pitch into the 7th inning, despite being at just 74 pitches. Roberts explained his reasoning after the game.
“I’m going to be the first to tell you that there’s no exact science to it. But I do know that all innings, all pitches, all number of pitches aren’t created equal,” Roberts said.
