For the people who interact with him on a daily basis, they know he's pretty unflappable and extremely professional in terms of how he goes about his business. I don't think the things that have been written about him or speculated about him have really any impact."

The rookie had this to say about the game. Things kind of haven't been going our way. Tonight was a good team win," Montgomery said. "That's what I really try to do every time, just try to go out there and give six or seven innings every outing. I definitely wanted to go out there and give my team that tonight." "according to http://m.yankees.mlb.com/news/article/238867774/jordan-montgomery-leads-yankees-past-white-sox/

New York manager Joe Girardi had this to say about his rookie left -hander. "His slider was really good," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "I'm just really happy with what he's doing.

"according to http://m.yankees.mlb.com/news/article/238867774/jordan-montgomery-leads-yankees-past-white-sox/
I mean, when you can do that to a club, when you can have them bring in some of their key guys in certain situations when they're thinking they might have a five-run lead that gives them room to breathe," White Sox manager Rick Renteria said. "It's never comfortable when the opposition is starting to put pressure on you. That's the type of approach, that's the type of concentration, that's the type of play that we want to have." "according to http://m.yankees.mlb.com/news/article/238867774/jordan-montgomery-leads-yankees-past-white-sox/
