He allowed 1 earned run on 3 hits, with 5 walks and 3 strikeouts. Montana goes to 57-35. The win puts them 2 games up in their division.

Also producing for Montana was second baseman Riley Howard, who stroked a single in the top of the fourth. For the game, Howard was 1 for 4.

"It was a good effort all around," said Howard.
