Are Jordan Montgomery , Luis Patino starting tonight’s game for New York, Tampa Bay as New York, Tampa Bay begin a three game series in St. Petersburg Florida?
The answer is yes!
Jordan Montgomery who is a left handed pitcher for New York comes into the game with a record of 1-1 with an earn run average of 4.41.
In his last start Wednesday against the Astros, Montgomery matched his longest outing of the season, throwing six innings in his second quality start. He will look to pitch even deeper while aiming for his first win since his season debut on April 5.
Luis Patino who is a right handed pitcher for Tampa Bay comes into the game with a record of 1-0 with an earn run average of 1.17.
Rather than pairing Patiño with Shane McClanahan on Sunday, the Rays held him back to start vs. New York. He's likely only built up to pitch 3-4 innings, but he's been lights out so far with four baserunners and 10 Ks in 7 2/3 IP over three outings.
