Stuart Leonard Miller, is a former pitcher in Major League Baseball who played for the St. Louis Cardinals, Philadelphia Phillies, New York & San Francisco Giants, Baltimore Orioles and Atlanta Braves. He batted and threw right-handed. In a 16-season career, Miller posted a 105-103 record with a 3.24 earned run average, 1164 strikeouts, and 154 saves in 704 games pitched. While relief pitchers are generally known for being hard throwers, Miller's success was due to his deceptively slow, wide-sweeping benders, thrown as slow as 53 MPH, which baffled the hitters of his day, and led to two all-star game appearances. On April 30, 1967, Steve Barber and Miller combined to pitch a no-hitter for the Orioles against the Detroit Tigers, but would lose 2?1 because of a wild pitch and an error allowing two runs to score in the ninth inning. Miller was involved in one of the more memorable moments in All Star Game history, albeit for an exaggeration of the event in question.
