The rain went away, and Star Wars characters came out to play.
Oh, and the Chattanooga Lookouts won again, too.
Fans dressed as Darth Vader, Yoda and Stormtroopers invaded AT&T Field Saturday night as the scorching Lookouts rallied for a 3-2 victory over the Pensacola Blue Wahoos on “Star Wars Night.” There was no sign of Tropical Storm Cindy, which wiped out Thursday’s second-half Southern League opener and delayed Friday’s start, and that all added up to a season-high crowd of 6,376.
“This was a great night for Lookouts fans,” team president and general manager Rich Mozingo said. “Star Wars, fireworks and good weather is a great combination.”
It was the first sellout audience of the season at AT&T Field, topping the previous high of 5,504 for a May 26 contest against Montgomery.
