Mason Miller's Dominance: Padres' Record-Breaking Streak

0:00It's April 19. I'm Corey with The Story, and this is MLB News Today, your AI-powered baseball briefing. Padre's closer. Mason Miller just keeps dominating. He stretched his scoreless streak to 32 and two-thirds innings in a tight two-to-one win over the Angels on Sunday. That's one innings shy of the franchise record set back in 2006. Miller came in late, retired the side in order, and fan the final two hitters to seal it. This season, he spaced 38 batters and only left four reach-base, two walks and two singles. Out of those, he struck out 27 for a 71.1% rate. That's the best mark for any pitcher's first 11 outings since at least 1900. Fernando Tatiz Jr. called it Game Over when Miller takes the mound late. Fans are feeling that vibe too, with Miller turning close games into locks. His consistency stands out, showing up the same way every time. Miller joined the Padre's at last summer's trade deadline.

1:01He gave up two runs in his second outing on August 5th and hasn't allowed a run since. Managers like Craig Stamman praise how reliable he is, beyond just his velocity and nasty slider. With the streak still rolling, Miller's rewriting the Padre's record book and making their bullpen untouchable. Expect more highlights as he chases that mark.
