CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. -- A day after both teams combined to score 34 runs, Chattanooga and Tennessee combined to score only two runs. Starting pitcher Ben Jukich, who returned to Chattanooga after a brief stint with Louisville, led the Lookouts to a 2-0 victory at AT&T Field.

The Lookouts entered the scoreboard in the second. After two outs were quickly recorded, Drew Anderson singled to start the rally. With Chris Denove batting, starting pitcher Esmailin Caridad (4-3) committed a balk to advance Anderson to second. Denove then made Caridad pay for his mishap by nailing an RBI single to center.

Chattanooga scored their second and final run in the third on a solo shot from Sean Henry.

Jukich improved to 9-4 on the season for the Lookouts by throwing seven innings of



shutout baseball. He struck out seven, while yielding just eight hits on the evening.

Robert Manuel pitched the final two innings in shutout fashion to notch his second save of the season.
