Stu also led the NL with a 2.47 ERA in 1958, was an NL All-Star in 1961, and was a key member of the 1966 World Series champion Baltimore Orioles (18 saves, 2.25 ERA). He is a member of the Orioles Hall of Fame and the San Francisco Giants Wall of Fame.

 

In his 16-year career (1952-1954, 1956-1968), Miller had 105 wins, 153 saves (3rd all-time at the time of his retirement), 1,164 strikeouts, & 3.24 ERA in 704 games.
