Miller's Scoreless Streak Ends, Padres Closer Still Dominating

0:00On April 28th, Mason Miller's scoreless streak finally snapped last night at Peco Park. The Padres closer had dominated for 34 and two-thirds innings without allowing a run, grabbing the all-time franchise record along the way, but in the ninth, he gave up two runs during San Diego's 9-7 win over the Cubs. That run started back on August 6th of last season, carrying over into this year with pure shutdown vibes. He even extended it further in Mexico City over the weekend before facing the Cubs. Baseball heads are hyped about the impact, calling it one of the most impressive relief stretches in decades. It slots in as the eighth-longest scoreless streak for relievers since 1961, putting Miller in rare air with the game's elite arms. No major follow-ups yet, but his overall season stats keep shining bright for the Padres bullpen. Teens are still adjusting to his triple-digit heat. Miller's just getting started, locking in that closer role as the Padres push forward, expect more fire from the mound.
