Jordan Montgomery To Start Game 5 Against Astros
1 year agoAs expected, Texas Rangers left-hander Jordan Montgomery will start Game 5 of the American League Championship Series in Texas on Friday against the division-rival Houston Astros. Montgomery dominated the Astros in Houston in Game 1 of the series on Sunday, going 6 1/3 scoreless innings for the win while walking only one and striking out six. The 30-year-old southpaw has given up five runs (four earned) on 20 hits (one homer) while walking just two and fanning 13 in 17 1/3 innings over his three postseason starts this year. Montgomery's only blemish was in Game 2 of the ALDS against the Baltimore Orioles, when he gave up all five runs (four earned) on nine hits (one homer) in just four innings for a no-decision.
