His postseason ERA moved to 2.08 as he set the tone <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/sports\/mlb-postseason\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in this ALCS<\/a> for the road team.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Because of Montgomery\u2019s performance, the Rangers didn\u2019t need much offense to get the job done. First, it was catcher Jonah Heim singling home Evan Carter to get on the board first in this series.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/rangers-finish-sweep-orioles-alds-not-lost-postseason\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>RANGERS FINISH SWEEP OF ORIOLES IN ALDS; STILL HAVE NOT LOST IN POSTSEASON<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then, center fielder Leody Taveras, the No. 9 hitter in the Rangers\u2019 lineup, went deep off <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/sports\/mlb\/houston-astros\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Astros starter<\/a> Justin Verlander in the top of the fifth. It was a hanging slider by Verlander that caught too much of the plate, and Taveras took a big swing and connected on the sweet spot, launching it over the right center field fence.<\/p>\n<p>Verlander went 6.2 innings for the \u2018Stros, giving up the two earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Rangers\u2019 bullpen continued Montgomery&#8217;s momentum once his night was over, and it started with Josh Sborz finishing the seventh inning to leave the Astros scoreless.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then, Aroldis Chapman, another trade acquisition for the Rangers, had a strong inning in a ballpark he\u2019s had some unpleasant memories in while a member of the Yankees. Finally, Jose Leclerc picked up the save in the bottom of the ninth.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Some of Houston\u2019s heavy hitters struggled in this one, including their power-hitter left-hander Yordan Alvarez, who struck out three times in an 0-for-4 night. Jose Altuve also went 0-for-3 with a walk, while Kyle Tucker, who has been struggling thus far in the postseason, went 0-for-4 as well.<\/p>\n<p>Texas has yet to lose this postseason, carrying their winning ways from a clean sweep of the Baltimore Orioles in the ALDS and two wins in a row in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/rangers-jordan-montgomery-shuts-down-rays-take-game-1-wild-card-series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wild Card round<\/a> against the Tampa Bay Rays.<\/p>\n<p>They will look to keep that going on Monday afternoon with Nathan Eovaldi going against the Astros&#8217; Framber Valdez.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/rangers-rally-jordan-montgomerys-brilliant-start-win-alcs-game-1-astros\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/rangers-rally-jordan-montgomerys-brilliant-start-win-alcs-game-1-astros <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Texas Rangers shut down the Houston Astros to take Game 1 on the road, 2-0, at Minute Maid Park on Sunday night.\u00a0 Jordan Montgomery [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-82389","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
