A longtime sportscaster from our area has passed away.
Jim Miller worked for WBRE-TV for nearly two decades on the air, reporting on high school sports, professional sports, and more.
Miller, a native of Scranton, played professional baseball with the likes of Pete Rose and Willie Stargell before his broadcasting career.
He was a sports anchor at the CBS affiliate in Oklahoma City for a year and a sports anchor at the ABC affiliate in Columbus, Ohio for three years before joining WBRE in 1982.
Miller was the sports director at WBRE and left the NBC affiliate in 1999.
Our thoughts go out to his former colleagues and his family.
Jim Miller was 74 years old.
