The Chattanooga Lookouts will wrap up their regular season this afternoon at AT&T Field with a chance at franchise history.
Chattanooga earned its 90th victory Sunday evening with a 5-1 victory over Montgomery, matching the win total of the 1992 Lookouts. No Chattanooga team has won 91 regular-season games as a member of the Southern League, which was founded in 1964.
“We’ve done it with a lot of different faces, and some of the guys who have been here all year have been pretty consistent,” Lookouts manager Jake Mauer said. “To rattle off the number of wins we’ve had and the things that we’ve done have been pretty exciting to watch, and we’re really just trying to stay healthy here at the end, but the makeup of this team has been really good all year.
“We’ve got a good group of guys who pull for each other, and even though faces have changed, guys who have come up have filled in very nicely.”
The Lookouts rolled to first- and second-half championships in the North Division and will begin the best-of-five divisional series with Montgomery on Wednesday night at AT&T Field. Should the series go the distance, Chattanooga would host every game with the exception of the third one.
