First cracked windshield at Miller Stadium is on Mills SUV!


At most baseball stadiums the start of the game is celebrated by a famous figure throwing out the first pitch prior to the start of the game. At James B. Miller Stadium, instead of ceremonial first pitch, there is the ceremonial first cracked windshield.

Wednesday morning the ceremonial first cracked windshield in Jim Miller Stadium history just happened to be the windshield of stadium namesake, Jim "Mills" Miller (see adjacent photo).

Mills tells voiceseyeonbaseball.blogspot.com that his wife Carol had just cancelled an 11 a.m. meeting for the Mill's at Heyer Hall. The cancellation caused "mills" to remain at the stadium with vehicle at risk.

The windshield was broken at 11:01 a.m.
