Josh VanMeter hit a two-run double in the sixth inning, leading the Pensacola Blue Wahoos to a 6-1 win over the Chattanooga Lookouts on Monday.

Pensacola right-hander Austin Ross (6-0) picked up a quality start and the win after allowing one run on six hits over six innings.

The double by VanMeter scored Nick Senzel and Gavin LaValley to give the Blue Wahoos a 3-1 lead.
