In a 12-season career, Mills posted a 39-32 record with 456 strikeouts and a 4.12 ERA in 474 games.

Perhaps the most famous moment of Mills' career came in 1998 when, as a member of the Orioles, he gave Darryl Strawberry a right cross that sent Strawberry sailing into the dugout during a bench clearing brawl with the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium.
