Biscuits top Lookouts 8-3 in final game of series
The Montgomery Biscuits rebounded from an 8-1 loss in the opener to win the second game of Sunday’s doubleheader 8-3 against the Chattanooga Lookouts at Riverwalk Stadium.
Starting pitcher Brody Hopkins set the tone early, striking out two Lookouts batters in a scoreless first inning.
The Biscuits’ offense came alive in the bottom half. Matthew Etzel reached first base and successfully stole second with a diving slide. During the same at-bat, Tampa Bay Rays prospect Brayden Taylor placed a soft hit that dropped between three Lookouts defenders, allowing Etzel to score from second.
Tatem Levins followed with a line drive to center field that brought Taylor, a 2023 first-round draft pick, home standing up.
The Biscuit went on to build an 8-3 victory, salvaging a split after dropping the first game of the doubleheader.
The Lookouts take the series 4-2.
What’s Next for the Biscuits
The Biscuits hit the road for a 6-game series with the Rocket City Trash Pandas beginning Tuesday.
They return home on Tuesday, May 13th for a series with Biloxi.
