Bob Miller shut out the Pittsburgh Pirates on eight hits for his third straight victory
On May 25, 1950, Philadelphia Phillies rookie pitcher Bob Miller shut out the Pittsburgh Pirates on eight hits for his third straight victory of the season. Phillies coach Benny Bengough spoke to the Associated Press after the game about his young hurler: “… He hasn’t any trick deliveries but he can hit a dime with that curve of his. And how his fastball fools you. Notice how he kept Ralph Kiner off-balance. His control is so good he can nip the corners and keep the hitters from getting set. He is cool as a cucumber and very good when he’s in a tight spot.”
