Montgomery matched a season high by logging three scoreless innings in Sunday's 14-inning loss to the Cardinals. He walked one and struck out two.

EDGE Analysis

Montgomery was in line for the win when the Cubs scored one in the top of the 14th, but Luke Farrell allowed a two-run, walkoff home run to former Cub Dexter Fowler in the bottom of the inning. The 28-year-old lefty made 14 starts for Chicago a season ago, so he can chew up some innings out of the bullpen when needed. The good performance lowered his season ERA to 4.41.
