Montgomery's HR Saves White Sox | MLB News

Colson Montgomery delivered a career-defining moment for the Chicago White Sox, crushing a go-ahead homer in the eighth inning — his 22nd of the year and his first on the one-year anniversary of his MLB debut — to spark a 3-1 victory over the Cleveland Guardians and reclaim first place in the AL Central. After the Guardians took the first two games with walk-off hits, Montgomery’s clutch performance, including a first-inning double that scored Miguel Vargas, turned the tide. The game stayed tight, with both starters pitching well, until Vargas added an insurance run in the ninth. Brandon Eisert earned the win, and Grant Taylor closed it for his third save. With Erick Fedde facing Tanner Bibee in the series finale, this win was crucial to snapping the Guardians’ momentum and keeping the division race razor-thin.
