Baseball player

Kenneth Albert "Whitey" Miller (May 2, 1915 – April 3, 1991) was a Major League Baseball pitcher who appeared in four games, all in relief, for the New York Giants in 1944. The 29-year-old rookie stood 6:ft 1:in (1.85:m) and weighed 195:lb (88:kg).

Miller is one of many ballplayers who only appeared in the major leagues during World War II. He made his major league debut on September 15, 1944, in a road game against the Philadelphia Blue Jays at Shibe Park. His last appearance was on September 29 in a home game against the St. Louis Cardinals at the Polo Grounds. Miller was very effective in his limited big league action. In a total of 5 innings pitched he gave up 5 baserunners and 2 runs, both unearned. His brief career ended with a 0–1 record, 3 games finished, and an ERA of 0.00.
