During the 24th annual membership dinner of the Dubois County Museum, Montgomery presented the museum with an autographed photo of him joining the Chicago White Sox organization holding his No. 21 jersey, a bat that he used to hit his first home run in Double-A ball, as well as a pair of baseball gloves that he wore during his streak of 50 games on base.

The museum plans to add these items to the sports collection exhibit.

The donation comes days after fellow Dubois County baseball standout Scott Rolen was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
