Andrew Miller threw three tough innings as he started his rehab assignment with the Hens.  He gave up five runs on five hits and five walks with four strikeouts in just three innings.  He reached his pitch count pretty quickly and those three pretty poor innings were all he could manage.  Joel Zumaya threw better with a shutout eight.  He didn’t strike anyone out but he also didn’t give up a base runner.

All of the scoring in this 8-7 win came prior to the sixth inning.  Mike Hessman homered and drove in four runs while Timo Perez went three for four with a triple, two RBIs and two runs.
