This will be the second game of the series with MTSU. The Vols traveled to Murfreesboro back on March 11 and came away with a 2-0 victory. Both runs were scored in the third inning off of MTSU starter, Nathan Foriest. The Vols stranded ten runners, but the UT pitching staff shutout MTSU. Owenby got the start, going 2 innings, giving up 1 hit, 1 walk and 2 K's. Lenstrohm would pick up the win, giving up 2 hits, 0 walks and 1K. Bettencourt, Peterson, Lee and Cox would all go an inning each combining for...2 hits, 0 runs, 3 BB's and 6 K's.
MTSU has two former Vols on the squad. Jr. LHP Brandon Zajac and Jared Allen. Zajac injured a knee and will miss the game. Allen is one of the best players on the MTSU team. He went 2 for 4 against us in the first game, he's batting .283.

Jonathon Sisco (R-Sr RHP) - 7.71 ERA, 1-0 w/l, 7.0 IP, 8 H, 6 R, 6 ER, 6 BB, 9 SO, .276 b/avg.
In 2012, as a junior he had the third most starts on the team. He had a record of 5-4 and a 3.49 ERA, good for fourth best on that squad.
He took a medical redshirt his senior season due to a torn labrum. This will be his first start of the season.

CDS has not announced a starter yet, hopefully he'll be on the radio today as is usual. To a degree, it doesn't matter who starts because we've pitched by "committee" in the mid week games thus far. I don't see that changing.
GBO!!!
