Bryant had been Chicago's only baserunner before the seventh, reaching when third baseman Kyle Seager booted his one-out grounder in the fourth for an error. Bryant was picked off first.

A 29-year-old left-hander who is winless in his last six starts, Miley entered with a 5.23 ERA.

Chicago's Jake Arrieta didn't allow a hit until Leonys Martin singled leading off the fourth.
