Max Murphy was a home run short of the cycle, driving home two runs as the Chattanooga Lookouts beat the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp 9-3 on Friday.
Jonathan Rodriguez doubled and singled twice with two runs for Chattanooga.
Trailing 2-0, the Lookouts tied it up in the second inning when T.J. White hit a two-run home run.
The Lookouts later added runs in four additional innings to secure the victory.
Chattanooga right-hander Kohl Stewart (3-4) picked up a quality start and the win after allowing three runs on six hits over six innings.
Opposing starter Trevor Richards (2-1) took the loss in the Southern League game after a rough outing in which he allowed five runs and 10 hits over four innings.
