Montes Dominates Lisbon
Tuesday, July 2nd , 1957
The New York D Gold Miners did little to support starter Edwin Montes against the Lisbon Jazz, but it turned out he didn't need the help.
The right-hander spun a complete game shutout against the Jazz, striking out 8 and surrendering 3 hits. The performance from Montes allowed New York D to escape with the 2-0 win, despite an anemic offense.
"Nobody came to me and said, 'Edwin, we're gonna need you to win this one for us today,' but I could feel it," Montes told BNN reporters following the win. "I'm the guy that will step up for you when you need it."
This year, Montes has 4 wins and 2 losses and a 2.57 ERA.
