The Philadelphia Phillies jumped on Wade Miley for six runs --five earned-- en route to a 9-5 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday night. Miley was having a stellar run of it as of late, winning his last three starts while hurling to a 1.88 ERA, that all came to a screeching halt on Friday.
Wade Miley had no command of any of his pitches in the five innings he was able to get through and it showed early on. The first run of the game came on a walk drawn by Carlos Ruiz, the second of three walks in the first inning for Miley. Dominic Brown's RBI groundout made it a 2-0. Chase Utley hit a RBI single in the second and two more runs scored in the third inning from a Darin Ruf sacrifice fly and a Cody Asche RBI single.
The Phillies got one more off Miley in the fifth inning on another RBI single from Cody Asche. The D-backs made it interesting after Alfredo Marte hit a pinch hit grand slam in the sixth inning, but the blast proved to not be enough.
Dominic Brown hit a laser two run homer in the seventh and Grady Sizemore had a RBI double in the eighth to push the league back to five at 9-4. Paul Goldschmidt hit a RBI double to finish the game at 9-5.
Josh Collmenter and Cliff Lee will face off in the second game of the series on Saturday.
