It kind of stayed there and didnt go away. In between innings, it kind of got a little worse.That put an end to perhaps his best performance since joining Baltimore on July 31. The left-hander was 1-5 with an 8.41 ERA in eight starts as an Oriole.Miley was replaced by Darren ODay, who was activated from the disabled list before the game.
