Keider Montero allowed three hits and zero runs across 9.0 innings versus the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday night, joining Justin Verlander and Michael Fulmer in the Detroit Tigers' history books.
Despite a handful of bright spots throughout the season, Keider Montero hasn't exactly had the cleanest rookie campaign.
It marked the first shutout by a Detroit pitcher since 2021, and the performance paved the way for the club's 11-0 series-opening victory.Montero became just the third Tigers rookie to toss a shutout in the last 28 seasons. Justin Verlander achieved the feat in 2006, while Michael Fulmer did it in 2016, both en route to winning AL Rookie of the Year.
