Hard-throwing Bobby Miller solid in MLB debut, leads Dodgers past Strider, Braves 8-1

Bobby Miller won a duel of hard-throwing pitchers, allowing one run over five innings in his big league debut to lead the Los Angeles Dodgers to an 8-1 victory over Spencer Strider and the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night. J.D. Martinez and Jason Heyward homered for the Dodgers, who also got three RBIs from Will Smith. Strider fanned 11 hitters to add to his MLB-leading strikeout total — his fourth start this season with double-digit Ks and 10th of his young career.
