This is not the first time that Miley shows up against a manager during a game. He was caught in a similar situation last season when he was still with the Diamondbacks, when manager Kirk Gibson replaced Miley with a pinch-hitter in the third inning after he gave up three runs and five hits in two innings of work.
The following is from Michael Wagan of The San Diego Union Tribune:
"I just wanted to stay in the game and correct it. That was what I was most frustrated about," Miley said. "Everybody in the stadium knew I was struggling to find it. My arm felt really, really good — the best it's felt in a while. I just wanted to go back out."
Maybe Wade Miley has not been as brilliant as we want him to be, but at least he is still showing that he cares. It's great to see some hustle from someone else besides Bogaerts, Holt or Pedroia; even though Miley didn't show it in the field. Actually this is something that reminded me a lot from John Lackey, this is something that the 2013 version of him would get into.
We are still waiting on John Farrell's post-game press conference for more details about the incident with Miley.
Do you think Miley's attitude will be a factor taken into consideration with Justin Masterson coming out of the DL? Leave your comments below and don't forget to follow us on Twitter at @RedSoxLife
