The other two times Miller has walked three times in his career were May 28, 2024, vs Lakeland, and Aug. 15, 2024, vs Winston-Salem. His two stolen bases also put him in a tie for first in the Eastern League with 20 stolen bases on the season. Additionally, Miller ranks third in the Phillies organization in stolen bases with his 20. His 20 stolen bases has already matched Reading’s high in stolen bases from last season, when Gabriel Rincones Jr. had 20 swiped bags. Lehigh Valley’s Oscar Mercado leads the way with 24 and Justin Crawfordis second with 23. After hitting just .203 in April, Miller posted a .284/.364/.432 (.796 OPS) slash line over 24 May games, along with 11 runs, four doubles, three home runs and eight RBI. - Jake Starr - Reading Director of PR/Media Relations, Client Fulfillment & Broadcaster
