Biography

Larry Miller was a professional baseball pitcher born in 1937, whose career spanned from 1964 to 1966. He made his Major League debut during a transitional period in baseball, marked by the rise of power hitters and the increasing importance of specialized pitching roles. Miller played for two seasons in the big leagues, primarily known for his versatility on the mound. Throughout his career, Miller compiled a win-loss record of 5-14, with an earned run average (ERA) of 4.71. Over the course of his tenure, he recorded 93 strikeouts, showcasing his ability to miss bats despite a challenging win-loss record.
