Lookouts Draw Sellout Crowd of 6,372 in 4-1 Loss.

July 31, 2015

The Chattanooga Lookouts (56-43) struck first, but the Blue Wahoos (43-58) scored four unanswered runs to win the fourth game of the series, 4-1, and even it at two games a piece. The game took place in front of a sellout crowd of 6,372 fans at AT&T Field. The crowd is the team's largest since last year's Super Hero Night (7/25) crowd of 6,378.

Shannon Wilkerson started the game off on a high note for the Lookouts, leading off the game with a double to left-center field. On second the center fielder reached third on a Levi Michael sacrifice bunt and then scored on a Max Kepler groundout.  

For over six innings it seemed like one run was all the Lookouts would need as Greg Peavey was lights out on the mound. In his first start since returning from Triple-A the righty only allowed one earned run in six and a third innings. Despite his solid outing he did surrender the eventual winning run in the seventh inning and was charged with the loss.  

Pensacola plated those two runs against Peavey on a fielding error and a Sean Buckley RBI single. They then added two runs in the eighth on a two-run single by Juan Duran. Newly acquired lefty Cody Reed picked up the win for the Blue Wahoos in his first start with the team. Reed finished the game going seven innings and only allowing one run.  

Tomorrow is Used Car Night at AT&T Field at 7:15 p.m! Fans who come out to the park tomorrow will be able to watch LHP David Hurlbut take on the Wahoos in the rubber match. Gates for tomorrow's contest are set to open at 6:00 p.m.
