Chattanooga Lookouts logoThere were broken bats Friday night at AT&T Field.
Thankfully, nobody broke a leg like skydiver Justin Silvia did Thursday night prior to the 11-inning season opener.
All of the drama Friday — what little there was in a 1-hour, 59-minute game — played out between the Lookouts and the Jackson Generals in Chattanooga’s 2-0 win before a crowd of 3,061, who also enjoyed postgame fireworks.
Chattanooga starter Duke von Schamann confused the Generals for his entire seven-inning outing. He allowed just two hits — a double in the second and a single in the sixth — did not walk anybody and struck out two.
“He commanded all of his pitches in and out of the zone, and he was difficult,” Lookouts manager Razor Shines said. “He was definitely the key.”
