Montgomery was called up Monday afternoon, as announced by manager Joe Girardi, after beating out Luis Cessa, Chad Green and Bryan Mitchell - all of whom have prior major league starts.
"It's going to be packed", right fielder Aaron Judge said.
"I'm excited. It's going to be packed", Judge said of Monday's game.
Judge is among five regulars hitting over.300 - along with Headley, Starlin Castro, Jacoby Ellsbury and Matt Holliday. With Blake Snell set to face Jordan Montgomery in the pitching matchup, the over/under for today's game sits at 8.5 runs.
His first really hard out came when Kevin Kiermaier flied out to left field for the second out of the center, when Yankees left fielder Brett Gardner sprinted toward the line to grab the ball.
Gardner was injured in a collision at first base with Rickie Weeks Jr.in the sixth inning Wednesday, when he reached on a throwing error by reliever Xavier Cedeno.

According to Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation spokeswoman Candice Bressler, the well is back under control. Fox News is reporting there are actually two leaks - one near the top and one further down the well assembly, says BP.
Both players left the game; Weeks confirmed he was day-to-day with a bone bruise in his shoulder and would likely not need a trip to the disabled list. Chris Dickerson also has played well, with nine hits, four runs and four RBI in that same span. Souza and Dickerson combined for two hits, a run and an RBI on Wednesday. Jacoby Ellsbury is 3-for-9 with two walks against Snell, who went 2-1 with a 3.00 ERA in four starts against the Yankees past year.
"He was a four-pitch mix", the manager said.
Even the Tampa Bay Rays official Twitter account joined in the fun and fired off a cheeky tweet in response to Martha's. Miguel Diaz (1-0) and five other pitchers combined to keep Colorado in check.
"The biggest thing was my location was really good today", said Pineda, who first became aware of his no-hit bid after the fourth inning. "We had opportunities early that we didn't capitalize on". "We've got to figure out a way to clean that up".
"I'm looking forward to get back to NY - get home, get settled", Judge said.
"You saw the action", Pineda said of the pitch while warming up.

Andriese has a 7.43 ERA in the three starts.
