[Empty Body]

 On Monday, September 4th, the Chattanooga Lookouts defeated the Montgomery Biscuits 2-1 in what was the final game of the regular season. With their win over the Biscuits on Monday, the Chattanooga Lookouts made history as they captured their 91st win of the season, which is the most ever recorded by any Lookouts team in the modern era. The previous record of 90 wins was held by the 1992 Lookouts squad.
 Chattanooga came ready to play on Monday afternoon. Lookouts starting pitcher, Ryan Eades turned in one of his best performances of the season on the mound. The former LSU Tiger tossed 5.0 scoreless innings, allowed just three hits, issued one walk, and struck out one. Eades (4-3, 3.63) also earned his fourth win of the season and was named the Ace of the Game for the Lookouts.
 The Lookouts scored the games first run in the bottom of the first inning after Max Murphy drew a bases loaded walk, which allowed Nick Gordon to cross the plate and give the Lookouts a 1-0 lead.
 Chattanooga extended their lead 2-0 in the bottom of the fourth inning when power hitter, Andy Wilkins, tattooed his 12th homer of the season, a solo shot over the right field wall.
 Montgomery got on the board in the top of the sixth inning courtesy of a solo home run from the bat of Joe McCarty which cut the Lookouts lead in half. Despite a late inning rally in the bottom of the ninth, it was the Lookouts who once again came away with the victory for the fifth consecutive day, giving them a series sweep over the Montgomery Biscuits to end the regular season.
 Lookouts relief pitchers, Randy Rosario and Keaton Steele also pitched well out of the bullpen and proved to be a key part of the Lookouts victory on Monday afternoon. Rosario (1-0, 4.08), earned his fourth hold of the season while Steele (0-0, 1.29), who recently joined the Lookouts, was credited with his first save.
