Padres closer Mason Miller misses NLDS Game 3 on paternity leave

Original: Padres' Mason Miller, added to paternity list, unavailable for NLDS Game 3 https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7667224/2026

San Diego Padres reliever Mason Miller has been placed on the paternity list and is unavailable for Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Milwaukee Brewers. The move leaves the Padres without their top late-inning arm for a key playoff game, with the bullpen forced to cover high-leverage innings in his absence.

Why now: The Padres are missing their best reliever at a pivotal point in a playoff series.
