Dominant Pitching Performance
Comerica Park witnessed a complete pitching masterclass on Friday, June 26, 2026, as Detroit Tigers hurlers Keider Montero and Enmanuel De Jesus combined to hold the Houston Astros scoreless. The two starters threw seven and two innings respectively, allowing just five hits and one walk between them while striking out five batters.
Montero earned the win, improving his record to 4-5, while De Jesus pitched a perfect final frame to preserve the shutout.
Astros Offense Stifled
Houston’s lineup was unable to generate any sustained pressure against the Tigers’ battery. Starter Spencer Arrighetti took the loss after allowing eight earned runs on five hits in just three innings. He was joined on the mound by Nate Pearson, Bryan Abreu, and Jake Meyers, who collectively retired the side in the later innings.
Pearson threw three scoreless frames with one strikeout, while Abreu and Meyers each recorded one out without allowing a hit or walk. Meyers, an outfielder, was forced into a relief appearance after being lined out to shortstop in the eighth inning.
