"It's been kind of ridiculous to watch," marveled Indians reliever Bryan Shaw after Miller's second consecutive two-inning, five-strikeout performance. Miller's next chance to pitch may be in Game 3 on Monday in Toronto (8 p.m. ET on TBS, as well as Sportsnet and RDS in Canada).
Miller entered in the seventh on Saturday after starter Josh Tomlin (5 2/3 innings) and Shaw (one-third) carried a 2-1 lead to that juncture. The lefty jogged in, and the Blue Jays knew exactly what they were up against. During the regular season, Miller spun a 1.45 ERA and piled up 123 strikeouts against nine walks.
