JSU's Mitch Miller Signs with Milwaukee Brewers

Jacksonville State’s Mitch Miller has signed a free-agent contract to pitch for the Milwaukee Brewers, the major league team announced on Monday.

Miller was not among the nine OVC players selected in last week's MLB First-Year Player Draft. Of those nine, Murray State's Daniel Calhoun has already signed a professional contract.

Miller, a native of Hokes Bluff, Ala., was a four-year letterman for the Gamecocks and led the team with 62 career appearances on the mound. He posted an 0-1 mark this season with a 6.37 ERA while earning saves against Middle Tennessee and UAB.

The senior threw 121 1/3 innings during his Gamecock career with 82 strikeouts and seven career saves, while posting a 3-5 career record.
