It has been a sweet week on the diamond for the Montgomery Biscuits, who treated local baseball fans to a dominant stretch of play against the Chattanooga Lookouts. The Double-A affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays rattled off three consecutive victories, capping a stretch that had Riverwalk Stadium buzzing with excitement.
The run began Thursday when the Biscuits blasted the Lookouts 9-2, securing their third straight win at that point and sending a clear message that the team was locked in and playing with confidence. The offense came alive in a big way, and the margin of victory left little doubt about who controlled the series.
Friday brought more of the same, as pitcher Edwards delivered six strong innings to anchor a 5-2 Biscuits victory. Edwards’ performance gave the Montgomery bullpen a much-needed rest and showcased the kind of starting pitching that can carry a team deep into a pennant race. The Biscuits’ bats provided just enough run support to make it a comfortable win.
While Saturday’s game ended in a narrow 5-4 loss to the Lookouts — despite a clutch three-run home run from Simpson that nearly pulled off a comeback — the week as a whole was a resounding success for the club. Simpson’s blast was a highlight-reel moment that reminded fans why Biscuits baseball is always worth the trip to the ballpark.
Taken together, the three wins demonstrated real depth across the roster, from the rotation to the lineup. For Montgomery baseball fans looking for reasons to celebrate this summer, the Biscuits have been delivering plenty of them. With the team playing inspired ball, now is a great time to grab a seat at Riverwalk Stadium and cheer on the home side.
