Montero (5-6) earned the win Tuesday over the Rockies, allowing three hits and no walks in a complete-game shutout. He struck out five.
It was a stellar performance from the 24-year-old Montero, who needed just 96 pitches to record all 27 outs. He allowed just three hits, all singles, while inducing three double-play balls. Montero's performance is especially impressive considering his struggles of late -- the right-hander had posted a 5.81 ERA in his previous 10 starts. Overall, Montero sports a 4.88 ERA with a 1.28 WHIP and 65:26 K:BB across 83 innings in his rookie campaign. He'll look to build on Tuesday's outing in his next start, tentatively scheduled for this weekend at home versus the Orioles.
