ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Boston Red Sox left-hander Wade Miley has pitched six hitless innings against the Los Angeles Angels on Friday night in the teams’ first game following the All-Star break.
Miley retired his first 16 batters before walking Chris Iannetta with one out in the sixth while battling C.J. Wilson through a scoreless tie. Miley struck out six, four on called third strikes, while throwing 84 pitches against an Angels lineup that scored 10 or more runs four times during their nine-game road trip leading into the break — but were hitless in 27 previous at-bats at home with runners in scoring position.
Miley faced the Angels on May 24 at Fenway Park, taking a no-hitter into the fifth before giving up a two-out single by C.J. Cron after a walk to Iannetta that also ended a chance at a perfect game. He went eight innings in a 6-1 victory.
