The Lookouts built a 4-0 lead after two innings, but the Biscuits responded with nine runs in the next two innings, including a six-run second. Chattanooga's Miguel Sano hit his 14th home run of the season in the top of the first, and Adam Walker blasted his league-leading 20th homer in the top of the eighth, but the Biscuits banged out 14 hits off four Lookouts pitchers.
