Kellan Montgomery is back in a groove for the Dos Pueblos baseball team.
The senior showed that he is fully recovered from a shoulder injury as he pitched 4.2 innings of relief and struck out 10 Lompoc batters in a 10-5 Channel League win on Tuesday at Scott O’Leary Field.
Montgomery relieved starter Jordan Rico with one out in the third and finished out the game. At one point, he struck out six straight hitters. Rico had three strikeouts.
The Long Beach State-bound Montgomery also contibuted on offense, ripping a two-run double.
Dylon Bailey went 2 for 4 with a double, Josh Brennan was 1-3 with a RBI, Jesse DiMaggion had double and two RBI and Ethan Rodriguez smacked a two-run double to pace the DP attack.
Dos Pueblos (10-10 overall) plays at Lompoc on Friday.
