It's nice to know that Burns didn't have to come out of the bullpen this season. 

That guy that just went deep for IU is far and away their best player, and he's just a sophomore. I would never, never, EVER advocate for tampering- but I wouldn't be opposed to our guys being extra friendly and welcoming to him this weekend.

worked with Amick last year, with the lake

The home
Plate ump yelled at Tony last inning
Something about the stretch apparently
I mean he yelled Tony!

Curley and Amick are back. Reese Chapman is starting to heat up. If all of those guys are right, this lineup has no holes. Very good sign at the right time of the year.

when they brought the relief pitcher in Coach E was going over the scouting g report with the next 34 hitters while he warmed up

Greatest of all time, they say!

Meeehhhhhhh!

1st homer in 2 months

We are in Dark Mode tonight
Taking batting practice when the visitors usually taking it

I guess Chase needs to spend a little more time in that vaunted ?pitching lab?.

The entire team and coaching staff found it difficult to breath from the self choking going on
This after ECU used 2.3M pitchers in the top of the 9th to atttempt to choke the game away

Lower level roughly 123-139

Can?t remember
Go to alltx and they?ll show the TN sections

For to watch our VOLS stomp the Norse!

Nice seat: 7 rows up between home plate and the VOL dugout

Nice crowd already with 45 minutes to game time

I agree!

 










































 

You realize I was quoting the announcer at the end?

The truth is hard for some to accept when it comes to the Vols.

Truth is a four (4) letter word that you AVOID at ALL costs!

Until a few years ago, I hadn't really watched any baseball since the MLB strike (some time in the 90's?).  In the past few years, if the BaseVols are playing I am likely watching, if possible.

I attended all but one of the mid-week games, as I got a good deal on them

If prices aren't outragous I hope to attend one of the games next weekend
Bet LNS will be rowdy

Truer words have never been spoken by a blue kitton

Sec champs. Tourney champs. No 1 rpi. No 1 kpi. No 1 in all the polls. No 1 overall seed

Probably see Combs in the bottom of the 9th
Nope Vollie Fingers still in

There is no reason to exhaust a pitching staff for a tourney that does not matter.

L$U went through at nine (9) pitchers yesterday (at least 7 through significant number of pitches and so should not be available today)
The VOLS used two (2)
Zander going six innings was huge and Phillips being able to complete the game saved arms, as well as Tony and Frank showing him their confidence in him should help him going forward
Loy was ready in the barn and may get the start for his usual 2 innings today (he has been the Tuesday starter and usually went 2)
I think today will be a lot like a Tuesday game pitching wise

We are in good shape for today and the regionals

FWIW, I think we sealed the #1 seed in the NCAA yesterday (I think we were going to be #1 but getting to the finals cemented it - today, like the basketball SEC finals, doesn't mean squat from the NCAA perspective)

Believe it or not but our pitching staff is in better shape for the game than L$U

A couple of points
Antigua is damn good defensive player and Curly has been slumping a bit
Pebbles was supposed to be our every day catcher but slumped early
Been hitting better
Billy Barrels has been slumping lately

Qeue Dixeland Delight

If the rumors are to be believed, both UK and BYU dwarfed our NIL offer, and we STILL got him.

Rick has the reputation of preping players for the NBA (See Admiral/Grant. Knect and others)
That IMO was the deciding factor
