LOOKOUTS 5, GENERALS 4
Thursday’s recap: Chattanooga relief pitcher Luke Bard tallied five strikeouts and John Curtiss added another in the ninth inning as the Lookouts (10-11) held Jackson (13-7) scoreless down the stretch in the series opener. The Lookouts took a 1-0 lead in the third inning on Edgar Corcino’s two-out double to left that scored Tanner English. Jackson scored three runs in the bottom of the fifth for a 3-2 lead, but Chattanooga went back up in the sixth when Levi Michael singled to left to score Travis Harrison and Lamonte Wade.
Next up: Game two of a five-game series in Jackson is tonight at 7:05 EDT.
Pitchers: The Lookouts are expected to name a spot starter today after having to play five games in three days earlier this week against Tennessee.
