Chattanooga Lookouts News Release


THE LAST GAME: Sunday's afternoon tilt between the Lookouts and Mudcats was suspended due to inclement weather. On Satturday, however, the Lookouts defeated the Mudcats, 7-3.

Chattanooga jumped out to quick lead, with two runs in the first. They went on to score three in the fourth and two more in the fifth. The Lookouts offense was led by Luis Bolivar (2-5), Joey Votto (1-2, 3 BB, 2 R), and Rick Asadoorian (2-4, 3B, 1 R). Lookouts' starter Tyler Pelland helped is own cause by going 1-2 at the plate, with a double and two RBI.

Pelland (2-1) got the win after pitching five strong innings, allowing two runs on four hits, while walking three and striking out three. The bullpen continued it's stellar work this season. Carlos Alvarado, Carlos Guevara, and Jon Coutlangus combined to pitch four innings, allowing one run on two hits. Carolina starter Anibal Sanchez took the loss after tossing 4.2 innings and giving up seven runs, four earned, on eight hits.

PROBABLE STARTERS: Due to yesterday's rainout, the starters for today's contest have yet to be determned.

THIS DATE IN BASEBALL HISTORY:

1901 - The American League had its first shutout. The Washington Nationals beat the Boston Somersets, 4-0.

1912 - In New York, Ty Cobb attacked a fan. The fan, accused of heckling Cobb, was missing one hand and part of the other. Cobb attacked him anyway. During the next few days, the trouble escalated. Cobb was suspended, the Tigers voted to strike, and the team fielded what we believe to be the first replacement players. Each striking player was fined by the league. Cobb returned to the Tiger lineup on May 26.

1918 - Walter Johnson recorded the longest shutout victory in history. The Washington Senators beat the Chicago White Sox, 1-0, when Claude "Lefty" Williams, who also went the distance, gave up the winning run . . . on a wild pitch . . . in the 18th inning.

1941 - Joe DiMaggio of New York got a single against the Chicago White Sox. It was the first hit of his 56 game streak. After one hitless game following the streak, DiMaggio began another which gave him a hit in 72 out of 73 games. The White Sox beat the Yankees, 13-1.

1953 - This is the birthday of George Brett. Besides leading the Kansas City Royals to their only World Series title in 1985, Brett's statistics are overwhelming: 3,000 hits, 300 homers, 600 doubles, 100 triples, and 200 stolen bases. He was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1999.

1973 - Nolan Ryan struck out 12 en route to a no-hitter. This was the first of his record seven no-hit efforts. He pitched his second two months later. His catcher, Jeff Torborg, backstopped the third no-hitter of his career. The Angels beat Kansas City, 3-0. No other player has ever pitched more than four major league no-hitters.
