Postseason spot doable for Miller
Posted Aug 11, 2006
Most baseball players finish their careers without having played in one World Series. Lakeland Tiger left-hander Andrew Miller has a chance to play in two of them this year alone. Just two months after leading the North Carolina Tar Heels to the College World Series in Omaha, the 21-year-old Miller signed a contract with Detroit last Friday that guarantees a call-up to the big club when Lakeland's season ends the first week in September.
