Posted By: <b>ken McMillan</b><p>The 1920 center fielder and cleanup hitter was Elmer Miller, a 30-year-old right-handed hitter who was between tours with the New York Yankees. Miller hit .333-8-104 in 159 games. He was second in the league in doubles (46) and fifth in batting, RBI and runs (108). He started his pro career with Duluth (Northern) in 1911, was purchased by Cincinnati and sold to the Cardinals before the start of the 1912 season. He went back to the minors after batting only .189 in 12 games with St. Louis. He returned to the big leagues late in 1915 with the Yankees and remained with New York through 1918. Miller was released to St. Paul in 1919 and batted .314 in 154 games for the pennant winning Saints, leading the league in home runs (15) and tying for the lead in triples (16). In 1921, he hit .313-18-96 in 102 games for the Saints and was re-acquired by the Yankees at the end of July. He hit .298-4-36 in 56 games for the Yanks’ first pennant winners and played center field in all eight games of the World Series, batting .161. Miller was traded to the Red Sox in July 1922, his last year in the majors. In seven big league seasons, Miller batted .243-16-151 in 413 games. In 1923 he jumped to the Beloit, WI, Fairies in the outlaw Midwest League and played for the team sponsored by the Fairbanks-Morse Co. for five years. He worked for the company until his death in November 1944.
