LAST GAME: Chattanooga, Tenn. - The Jackson Generals, the Double-A affiliate of Major League Baseball's Arizona Diamondbacks, held off a late charge by the Chattanooga Lookouts on Monday, winning 5-3 at AT&T Field. Jackson's victory means the Generals (49-40) have won four in a row and claim a series victory over the Lookouts (44-44). Full Recap: JacksonGeneralsBaseball.com

TODAY'S PITCHING MATCHUP: Just as they did to open this series, Emilio Vargas and Scott Moss will face off in the finale. The Lookouts got the better of Vargas last time, as Vargas allowed three homers in his first start after returning from the injured list. That was the last time Chattanooga beat the Generals. Moss has only allowed 1 earned run to the Generals in his last dozen innings against them, tallying 16 strikeouts. If the Generals are to win their fifth game in a row, they have to keep him from working more than five innings: his three losses this season (one to the Generals in April) have all featured starts in which he recorded 15 or fewer outs, allowing six or more baserunners each time.

THREE WEEKS NOTICED: Three weeks after the Southern League's All-Star Game, the Jackson offense is running on the fuel supplied primarily shortstop Jazz Chisholm, utility man Ramon Hernandez, and catcher Daulton Varsho. No other Generals boast an OPS over .800 in that span, with Hernandez leading the group in batting average (.313) and slugging (.625). With Ben DeLuzio and Andy Young being recently promoted to Triple-A Reno, the Generals could really use some sustained excellence from this trio to help them win.
