Chattanooga had the upper hand on the Montgomery Biscuits through eight innings after scoring two runs in the first but a wild throw by pitcher Tyler Jay caused Nathan Lukes to score giving Montgomery the lead and ultimately the victory in game four of five in Montgomery.
The last two games for the Lookouts have been the wake-up call for both teams involved in this series. Chattanooga kicked off Wednesday's battle the way they had the previous two nights, by putting points up on the board in the first inning. Jaylin Davis belted a two-run home run in the first, his fifth home run since joining Chattanooga, matching his total from earlier in the season with Fort Myers.
Miles Mastrobuoni singled on a line drive in the fifth to put Montgomery on the board but from that point, Chattanooga kept the bleeding from getting out of control that was until the eighth inning.
Tyler Jay had two issues in the eighth which resulted in Jake Cronenworth and Lukes scoring during the mistakes putting Montgomery up 3-2. Chattanooga's Michael Kranson was walked in the ninth which resulted in a mound visit. With two balls and one strike, Brian Navarreto popped up to first with first baseman Dalton Kelly making the catch in foul territory sealing Montgomery's comeback.
The loss is the 67th of 2018 for the Lookouts while the victory is Montgomery's 71st victory.
The series-deciding game five kicks off at 6:35 p.m. CT in Montgomery. Sean Poppen (5-6) will take to the mound for the Chattanooga Lookouts. Poppen last took the mound for the Lookouts in the August 18th 1-0 loss against Mississippi.
Forrest Snow makes his return to AA baseball on Thursday night for the Biscuits. Snow was sent down from AAA Durham Bulls after spending 2018 with the organization. During his career, Snow has played in AA for five seasons and has a 14-18 in 96 games. He'll make his Montgomery debut on Thursday night while in the past he played for Biloxi and Jackson.
