The Chattanooga Lookouts are not sad to see the Jackson Generals leave town after the visitors won their fifth game in a row at AT&T Field.
Tuesday’s 7-5 Generals win came despite another stellar night from Chattanooga’s Bash Brothers. Ibandel Isabel crushed his 23rd home run of 2019 – the most in the Cincinnati Reds organization – and another hit, and Mitch Nay had a pair of doubles and hit his 12th homer in the loss.
A four-run eighth inning off Lookouts reliever Juan Martinez turned around what was a 4-3 Chattanooga lead. A bases-loaded wild pitch tied the game before Mark Kasavioto’s sacrifice fly put the visitors ahead. Pinch-hitter Dominic Miroglio followed with a two-run homer.
Nay homered in the bottom of the eighth.
The Lookouts (8-12 in the second half) trailed 2-0 entering the fifth before Brantley Bell’s sixth homer cut the lead in half. They scored three more times in the sixth on Nay’s RBI double and Ibandel’s first-pitch two-run homer to right for a 4-2 lead.
