Grab your mitt and buy your ticket. Tonight is the Chattanooga Lookouts’ opening game for the 2019 season, and they will play the Montgomery Biscuits.

Opening day is one of the most exciting games in the season. Fans flock to AT&T Field with the fresh energy of a new year. The camaraderie is high. The hotdogs are good. The beer is cheap. The first game is just where it’s at – and then there are fireworks! Always a plus.

What’s new this season? Because you asked, the 2019 season is the first of the recently renewed contract with the Cincinnati Reds. ⚾ That means Cincinnati will develop players in Chattanooga to play in the Major Leagues with the Reds. It’s also the first season since the return of manager Pat Kelly, who last managed the Lookouts in 1994.

If you’re as excited as we are about the start of the season, then download this year’s schedule.

Some special promotions for the month of April include the World Famous Zooperstars, Dogs at the Diamond, Star Wars Night and Hispanic Heritage Day.
