Miller gave up one run on one hit in the ninth inning Tuesday but escaped his 26th save of the season in a 4-3 win over the Cubs. He struck out two.
He served up a solo shot to Ian Happ to make things interesting, but Miller still converted his 14th straight save chance, a streak that stretches back to June 18. With 26 saves, the right-hander has tied Oakland's rookie record, a mark set by Andrew Bailey in 2009. Over 59.2 innings this year, Miller boasts a 2.41 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 95:19 K:BB.
