LOS ANGELES – Rookie right-hander Bobby Miller has been checking off firsts at a rapid clip since making his big-league debut less than a month ago.LaMonte Wade Jr.’s three-run homer was the big blow in a four-run fifth inning against Miller as the San Francisco Giants routed the Dodgers 15-0.
The rookie right-hander looked set to continue the magical start to his big-league career when he allowed just two hits through the first four innings against the Giants – one a ground ball that ricocheted off his back. But there were signs that his command wasn’t as sharp as it had been in his first four starts.
Things didn’t get better from there. Alex Vesia came in and walked the first batter he faced, Wade, then gave up a first-pitch grand slam to J.D. Davis. Seven of the Giants’ runs were charged to Miller whose ERA went from 0.78 after his first four starts to a more mortal 2.83 now. One run allowed would have been too many on a day that saw the Dodgers’ offense get shut out for the first time since April and only the third time this season.
