SEATTLE — The Seattle Mariners needed just one run for starting pitcher Bryce Miller's seven-inning masterclass to result in a victory against the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday at T-Mobile Park.
The Mariners swept the Angels with the 1-0 win, improved to 45-43 on the season and remained tied with the Texas Rangers for first place in the American League West.
"The way (Miller's) come out and attacked, the way he's used all his stuff and missed bats, he's just been so deep into games and has done what we've asked him and more," Seattle manager Dan Wilson said after the game Thursday. " ... It seems like every time out, he's not giving up a hit until about the fourth or fifth inning. That's just the way he's throwing the ball right now. He's really in a groove, he's really locked in."
Miller took a no-hitter into the seventh inning. His bid at the rare feat was disrupted by a bloop single hit by Angels first baseman Nolan Schanuel. Another bloop hit by third baseman Denzer Guzman gave Miller two singles allowed for the game.
