The Chattanooga Lookouts could use a redo, but coaches and players insist they’re not thinking in those terms.

They went out and proved it Thursday night.

Chattanooga produced its second-highest scoring output of the season in a 15-4 whipping of Mississippi at AT&T Field. It was just the second win in a week for the Lookouts, who are 18-28 in the Southern League’s first half and 12 games back of Huntsville in the North Division.

The Lookouts have 24 more first-half games before all 10 league teams start anew on June 19 with 0-0 records.

“We’re not in this to redo anything,” Lookouts manager Razor Shines said. “We’re not going to redo our development process. We’re going to continue it, and we’re going to be better than when we started. Everybody in here competes, so you obviously look at the standings, but we are developing and coming along correctly.
