Was Miller tipping pitches? Closer blames blown save on lack of command

San Diego Padres closer Mason Miller and Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy have dismissed speculation that Miller was tipping pitches during his Game 2 blown save. After internet screenshots and videos raised questions about visible grips and runner signals, Miller emphasized that his own poor command and three ninth-inning walks caused the breakdown rather than any tipped pitches.

Murphy flatly denied Milwaukee picked up tells, while Padres manager Craig Stammen suggested Miller's multi-inning workload contributed to his erratic control. With the Brewers leading the National League Division Series 2-0 heading into Game 3, Miller noted he has no plans to overhaul his delivery.
