Unfortunately, they lost 11-3. We left after the 7th inning and the score wasn&#8217;t that bad at 6-3. In the eighth inning the Smokies scored five more times! I am glad we left when we did. I wish baseball games weren&#8217;t so slow; it was past my bedtime! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though they were losing, we had a good time. The game started at 7:15 p.m. so it wasn&#8217;t so hot out, and there was a cool breeze. In between innings there were little games that they picked people out of the stands for. The stadium played good music so that kept things entertaining as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The concessions were decent. There was not much to choose from but you had all of your basics, and the prices were not too bad. We got a pretzel and dippin&#8217; dots. There was also a store to buy apparel and other Lookout items, but we did not go inside. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was glad that we stayed through the 7th inning to see the &#8220;7th inning stretch.&#8221; We had never experienced it before. At the only other baseball game we&#8217;ve been to, a Houston Astro&#8217;s game, we left after the 5th inning. Baseball really is so slow! The mascot, Looie, came out and lead the crowd in singing &#8220;Take me out to the ballgame.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall we had a good time, and I think we might go again later in the season, which lasts through September. Friday nights have fireworks, so I think that would be a good time to go, plus perhaps we could stay the whole game since it would be a weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/82942430@N03\/51206468941\/in\/album-72157719333364055\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/51206468941_4c098b0d5f_c.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Lookouts Game83\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/82942430@N03\/51207235214\/in\/album-72157719333364055\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/51207235214_47b86fc833_c.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Lookouts Game80\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/82942430@N03\/51207234679\/in\/album-72157719333364055\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/51207234679_e2ea98f2bd_c.jpg?resize=533%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Lookouts Game87\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night we attended a Chattanooga Lookouts baseball game, finally.
