These players are barred from joining the players' union. His name also does not appear on any official commemorative merchandise from the Arizona Diamondbacks' 2001 World Series win. Through his career, Miller has also played for the Minnesota Twins, Arizona Diamondbacks (winning the 2001 World Series), Chicago Cubs and Oakland Athletics. In May 2000, he hit the first walk-off grand slam in the history of both Chase Field and the Diamondbacks, doing so in the bottom of the 12th inning against Orel Hershiser of the Los Angeles Dodgers.[1] He was named to the National League All-Star team in {{Baseball year|2002}}. On June 27, 2007, in a home game against the Houston Astros, Miller hit his second career walk-off home run in the bottom of the 11th inning to win the game for the Brewers. It was his first home run of the 2007 season. The walk-off came on La Crosse Day at Miller Park.[2] In his next game, he recorded a franchise-tying seven runs batted in, which included a grand slam and a two-run home run.[3] After becoming a free agent after the 2007 season, Miller attracted interest from a couple of teams, but declined, saying the Brewers were the only team he wanted to play for.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.baseball-reference.com/tiny/lSFtE|title=Team Batting Event Finder: From 1925 to 2018, All Teams, Home Runs, Walk-off, For ARI, With Runners on 123|work=Baseball Reference|accessdate=July 15, 2018}} 2. ^{{Citation| title = Home state hero connects with walk-off| date = June 27, 2007| url = http://milwaukee.brewers.mlb.com/news/gameday_recap.jsp?ymd=20070627&content_id=2052135&vkey=recap&fext=.jsp&c_id=mil| accessdate = June 27, 2007}} 3. ^"Miller goes 4-for-5 as Brewers pound Pirates".
