The Stars broke open a scoreless game in the fifth inning with two runs; they duplicated that number again in the sixth inning to lead, 4-0.
In the bottom of the sixth, a single by Norris Hopper, a walk to D'Angelo Jimenez was followed by Jeff Bannon's 10th home run of the year. Bannon's blast over the left field wall made it, 4-3.
Chattanooga threatened in the seventh inning when they loaded the bases with two outs. Junior Ruiz hit a routine fly ball to center to end the threat.
The Suns missed a scoring opportunity in the eighth inning when Tony Gwynn, Jr. was thrown out at the plate on Tony Zuniga's double over the head of Stephen Smitherman. The left fielder hit his relay man Bannon who fired the ball to catcher Ryan Hanigan. Hanigan, who had home plate blocked, tagged out Gwynn.
