BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Chattanooga Lookouts starter, Packy Naughton, worked a masterful seven innings in the 9-1 win over the Birmingham Barons Wednesday night at Regions Field.
A run-scoring double in the fifth represented Birmingham's lone run of the game as the Barons struggled to solve Naughton (W, 5-7).
Barons left-hander John Parke (L, 2-1) suffered his first loss in his sixth start at the Double-A level.
Parke allowed four runs (three earned) on eight hits and struck out four before he gave way to the bullpen.
Naughton worked through the seventh and allowed just one run on five hits. The left-hander struck out a pair to earn his fifth victory of the season and third in three starts against the Barons.
Lookouts third baseman Jonathan India led the offensive charge with a three-hit night at the plate.
The Cincinnati Reds' No. 3 prospect singled in the first, delivered an RBI-base knock in the fourth to extend Chattanooga's lead to 2-0 and singled once more in the sixth.
India, who earned a promotion from Hi-A Daytona also added one stolen base.
It was first multi-hit game since being promoted to Double-A from Class Hi- A Daytona Beach on Monday.
India missed a week earlier this month with a tweaked right hamstring and played four more games with Daytona before moving up.
MLB.com's 40th-ranked prospect has gone 5-for-10 in three games for the Lookouts with three runs scored and an RBI.
In 87 Florida State League games, India batted .256/.346/.410 with 28 extra-base hits -- including eight homers -- 50 runs, 30 RBIs and seven stolen bases.
So far, India's hasn't felt overwhelmed in the Southern League, despite the improved level of talent he's faced.
The Lookouts opened up a 4-0 advantage before Madrigal's RBI-single put the Barons on the board in the fifth.
Two Baron relievers could not tame Chattanooga's bats and surrendered five runs in 4.1 innings of work, including a three-run home run off the bat of Ibandel Isabel, who paces all of Double-A ball with 24 home runs. Eight of those home runs have come against the Barons.
