Jordan Montgomery Takes The Bump For Game 2
7 months agoTexas Rangers starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery is slated to start Game 2 of the ALDS against the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday. Montgomery was excellent during Texas' Game 1 wild-card triumph over the Tampa Bay Rays, pitching seven scoreless innings on six hits and no walks with five strikeouts. It added to a short resume of playoff prosperity for the 30-year-old, having now held the opposition to a lone run across 13 2/3 career postseason frames. Montgomery has dealt with Baltimore on numerous occasions from his time in the AL East with the New York Yankees, delivering a sharp 2.79 ERA with 52 punchouts in his last 10 starts (51 2/3 IP) against the O's since 2020. The veteran southpaw hopes that success translates over into Sunday's matchup.
