Montero (2-5) got the win over the Mariners on Tuesday, allowing one run on four hits and a walk while striking out eight over six innings.

Montero had his best outing of the season in a dominant effort Tuesday night. It was just the second time he's allowed one or fewer runs in a start and his eight strikeouts set a new career high. He faced the minimum through three, with his lone mistake coming on a solo home run to Luke Raley in the fifth. Montero ran into some trouble in the sixth but was able to get out of a jam with two runners on and nobody out. The 23-year-old now owns a 5.62 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 42:13 K:BB in 49.2 innings and will look to keep rolling in a projected start against the Giants over the weekend.
