TORONTO -- Brad Miller doesn't like the idea of being a first baseman. What else would a shortstop think? Despite his displeasure, Miller looked like a real first baseman Monday night in his first opportunity at his new position.
What made the experiment of changing a shortstop into a first baseman look even better was the fact Miller hit like a first baseman in the Rays' 7-5 loss to the Blue Jays.
Miller went 2-for-4 with two doubles and two RBIs while not at all resembling someone learning a new position.
"He looked very comfortable," Rays manager Kevin Cash said.
