Montas’ terrific start undone by home run, little offense

Box Score

In a surprise pitchers' duel, Frankie Montas dominated the Rockies lineup for much of the night. The only caveat? A three-run home run that put the Brewers behind in 3-1 deficit.

The final line for Montas looked solid. A six-inning outing with three runs still counts as a quality start, but after tallying double-digit strikeouts for the first time since May 26, 2022, it was closer to being so much more.

Montas cruised through the Rockies lineup, often befuddling hitters even with his fastballs as he caught batters looking right down the middle.
