The Michigan Baseball Hall of Fame is saddened to hear of the passing of Bob Miller at age 94 this weekend.
Bob was scheduled to be in our Class of 2020 along with Drew Henson, but the ceremony was postponed to 2021 due to Covid-19. A Detroit native, Bob went from young Philadelphia Phillies ace to University of Detroit coaching icon, where he won 896 games over 36 years.
We send our heartfelt condolences to the Miller family and know that his loss will be felt deeply among all of the players he coached and everyone who knew him.
