Biscuits win 5-4 ... in 14 ... at 12:53

Nevin Ashley singled home Matt Fields to give the Biscuits a 5-4, 14-inning victory over the Chattanooga Lookouts in a game that started Friday and ended early Saturday.

Ashley hit a bases-loaded single into left field and Fields scored at 12:53 a.m. Saturday.

The Southern League’s curfew wouldn’t have allowed the teams to play another inning. Teams aren’t allowed to begin another inning after 12:50 a.m.

Friday’s game wasn’t helped by the weather. A thunderstorm hit in the eighth inning and caused a 51-minute delay.
