The Detroit Tigers roar back with a 5-1 win over the Cubs, fueled by Keider Montero’s masterful outing and Hao-Yu Lee’s game-changing three-run homer. Montero, pitching five and a third innings, struck out eight and lowered his ERA to 3.14, showcasing rare versatility as one of only three Tigers pitchers in 60 years to start 14 games and appear in six relief outings by July. Lee’s clutch homer in the fourth capped a stellar June run, earning him a starting role. Spencer Torkelson tied the game with his 19th homer, and despite early trouble from Seiya Suzuki’s solo shot, Montero adjusted with his curve and slider to shut down the Cubs. This win pushes the Tigers to 4-2 in their last six games, inching closer to a wild card spot in the AL.
