I look forward to Longwood players looking me up on Twitter after the game.

This is seriously happening? Will Maddox with a costly error in the 8th. Vols down 7-3.

Vols lose 7-5...stranding like 16 runners on base. Incredible.

You're not going to beat anybody stranding 16 runners, I know this team is young, but come on!!

Tough being a fan of the Vols these days. Can't say I'm really surprised though.

Meh, not going to overreact to this. Refocus and get ready for the weekend, being swept for a second straight week would be a lot more upsetting IMO. Just want to see this team make it to Hoover

Serrano might wanna consider getting his team ready for Longwood instead of crying about the playing surface at VU.

Tough loss, too many left on base and errors at costly times....Gotta regroup and get ready for USCjr this weekend.

How in the hell do you strand 16 runners? I mean seriously...

The literal answer ("about two per inning") reminds me of an interview Arnold Palmer gave after a horrible round in which he posted a 12 on one hole.

"Arnie, how do you get a 12 on one hole?"
"Well, you miss the two-footer for 11."

And now back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Please pay attention. Our facebook and twitter guy do not speak for Serrano. Skip to 1:15 if you're stretched for time.

Not really. Just reminded me of a funny story.

Didn't we strand a bunch of dudes against Vandy in a game or two?

A team like the Vols with a fairly high on-base percentage and a fairly low slugging percentage will tend to strand a lot of runners.
