So far, so fun.
Scott Van Slyke’s two-run double to left field with two out in the eighth inning rallied the Chattanooga Lookouts to an entertaining 4-2 victory over Huntsville in Thursday night’s Southern League opener for both teams.
Van Slyke doubled twice and drove in three runs in his Double-A debut before an AT&T Field crowd of 3,985, so he can expect to hear today from his father, former big-league outfielder Andy Van Slyke.
“He’ll probably call me to see what happened,” Van Slyke said. “He’ll ask about my thought process in that last at-bat. We’ll definitely talk about it.”
