1967 Topps #345 Stu Miller
About Stu Miller
Card #345, a series-4 base issue, comes from the year Baltimore finally won it all. Miller went 9-4 in 1966 with a 2.25 ERA and 18 saves over 92 innings in 51 games, splitting the late innings with knuckleballer Eddie Fisher in a tandem worth 14 wins and 32 saves between them. The World Series needed almost none of it: Moe Drabowsky finished Game 1 in relief, then Jim Palmer, Wally Bunker and Dave McNally threw complete-game shutouts in the sweep of the Dodgers, so Miller never got into the Series.
Stuart Leonard Miller pitched sixteen major-league seasons (1952-1968) for the St. Louis Cardinals, Philadelphia Phillies, New York/San Francisco Giants, Baltimore Orioles and Atlanta Braves, after the Cardinals signed him for a $100 bonus out of a 1949 tryout camp in his hometown of Northampton, Massachusetts. A slightly built right-hander whose fastball topped out in the mid-80s, he built a long career on changing speeds and a jerky, deceptive delivery that wrecked hitters' timing, and the slow curve that floated to the plate earned him the nickname "The Butterfly Man." He led the National League in ERA in 1958 at 2.47, and 1961 was his only All-Star season, one in which he pitched in both of that summer's All-Star Games. The Giants traded him to Baltimore in December 1962, and there he appeared in an American League-record 71 games in 1963 and posted a 1.89 ERA in 1965 that stood as the Orioles mark for a pitcher of 100 or more innings until 2025. He finished 105-103 with 154 saves, third-most in major-league history when he retired, behind Hoyt Wilhelm and Roy Face. Baltimore put him in the Orioles Hall of Fame in 1989. He died January 4, 2015, in Cameron Park, California, at age 87.
