For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Montgomery and Brenham meet (four straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Tuesday. The Bears took a 5-2 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Cubs. The Bears were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Cubs apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in April of 2025.
Cason Irwin was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he didn't allow a single earned run while striking out seven over five innings pitched. What's more, he gave up only zero earned runs, the fewest he's had since back in April of 2025.
