Smokies Rally Past Lookouts Behind Madera
The Smokies took down the Lookouts 8-3 behind a fifth-inning go-ahead spark. Alex Madera went 4-for-4 with two RBIs, including a line-drive double to left that scored two and put the game away. Tennessee improves to 69-60 while Chattanooga falls to 58-72. The clubs meet again Saturday.
Madera's double came in the bottom of the sixth with runners in scoring position, driving in both Edgar Alvarez and Ariel Armas to break the game open.
The Smokies' bats were loud throughout, out-hitting the Lookouts 13 hits to 7 and keeping the pressure on from start to finish.
Chattanooga's trip back to face Tennessee on Saturday figures to test whether the Lookouts can find their footing against a suddenly hot lineup.
The Smokies are coming off a win, 5-5 over their last 10. The Lookouts are coming off a loss, 6-4 over their last 10.
