Tigers Rookie Keider Montero Dominates: One Thing From Every MLB Game

Tigers rookie Keider Montero dominated the Colorado Rockies with a ‘Maddux’ in his first career shutout. Here’s one thing from each MLB game.

Tigers 11, Rockies 0

The Tigers shut out the Rockies behind a ‘Maddux’ from Keider Montero. The rookie threw just 96 pitches and picked up five strikeouts. It was the sixth ‘Maddux’ thrown this season.

Padres 7, Mariners 3

Manny Machado hit his 26th home run in the sixth inning to become the Padres franchise leader in home runs with 164.

Cubs 6, Dodgers 3

The Cubs beat the Dodgers for the second straight night. Nico Hoerner went 3-4 at the plate and hit a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to add an insurance run to the Cubs lead. Pete Crow-Armstrong ends the game with a phenomenal catch to rob a two-run home run.

Brewers 3, Giants 2 

In a relatively uneventful game, the Brewers took care of business to bring their magic number down to nine games to win the division. William Contreras had his 14th 3-plus hit game of the season.

Diamondbacks 7, Rangers 0

Zac Gallen pitched five shutout innings and struck out five in the process. First-inning home runs by Joc Pederson and Christian Walker gave the Diamondbacks the early lead, and they never looked back. They now have a two-game lead over the Braves and Mets in the Wild Card race.

Athletics 4, Astros 3

Daz Cameron’s bunt single and Max Schuemann’s sacrifice bunt in the top of the 12th inning proved to be enough to score the automatic runner. The A’s took a one-run lead, and Nick Allen brought in another run with another bunt. Three bunts to score two runs in total for the A’s.

Reds 3, Cardinals 0

Elly De La Cruz stole his 63rd and 64th base in the first inning. A three-run fifth inning was all the run support the Reds pitching needed as they shut out the Cardinals.

Guardians 5, White Sox 0

Lane Thomas hit a three-run home run in the sixth inning. The White Sox were shut out for the 17th time this season.

Twins 10, Angels 5

Pablo López threw seven innings without allowing a single earned run. However, the Angels tagged him for four unearned runs. López struck out ten hitters as the Twins’ offense found its groove early.

Orioles 5, Red Sox 3

Every Orioles starter in the lineup recorded at least one hit. Cedric Mullins hit two home runs off of Red Sox starter Kutter Crawford.

Blue Jays 6, Mets 2 

Blue Jays starter Chris Bassitt went six innings with eight strikeouts. The Mets went 1-8 with runners in scoring position as they are now tied with the Atlanta Braves for the third and final National League Wild Card spot.

Royals 5, Yankees 0

The Yankees offense was held to just three hits against Seth Lugo and company. Lugo continued his great year with his 21st quality start of the season. He struck out 10 Yankees on the night, including four strikeouts of Aaron Judge and Juan Soto.

Braves 12, Nationals 0 

The Braves offense came to play with 15 hits. Matt Olson, Michael Harris II, and Ramón Laureano all collected three hits. Harris had a two-home run night as the Braves are now tied with the Mets for the third National League Wild Card spot.

Pirates 6, Marlins 4 

Andrew McCutchen hit his 20th home run of the season. He now has ten seasons of 20 or more home runs in his legendary career. The Pirates cruised past the Marlins for their 69th win of the season.

Phillies 9, Rays 4

Tensions ran high in a great game for the Phillies offense. Nick Castellanos was hit by a pitch in the eighth inning, and benches cleared. Pitcher Edwin Uceta was ejected as a result. Kyle Schwarber also set an MLB record for single-season lead-off home runs with his 14th of the year.
