[MarcoVol]

This Thacker kid needs to get some more appearances.

Looked really solid!

Rankings so far this season coming into this game:

HRs hit
Vols - 2nd (53)
ETSU - T4th (45)

Batting AVG:
Vols - 9th (.332)
ETSU - 13th (.331)

ERA:
Vols - 1st (1.72) (absurd stat)
ETSU - 16th (3.39)

Pair that with ut playing pitchers who aren’t weekend caliber, it’s a wonder why people are surprised this game is close. Etsu is good and we’re treating it as a bullpen game

 

[Vol423]

And ETSU throwing everything they've got. Never letting a batter see a pitcher twice. We could hammer them if we wanted to.

So we're choosing not to?

Georgia and VT beat them. Miami of Ohio run ruled them. Look at their schedule. They have played nobody. But you are doing your usual excuse making for us playing bad.

I know you understand midweek baseball….maybe.

Yeah I am sure after we swept UF, you thought, yeah that ETSU game could easily be a loss. Yeah right

Also won the weekend series @ Pitt, but I guess we’re just picking and choosing which games to use as an example

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

It’s really weird with some of you. It’s like you can’t call our team out when they play bad and lose a game they shouldn’t.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Are we using wooden bats or something?

The same Pitt that’s 12-7 and hasn’t really beaten a good team? Yeah I no guess that’s picking and choosing.

2 things can be true, we are playing poorly, yes. But etsu is also a really good team

Literally not playing bad tho. Just a couple young pitchers gaining experience

Based on being the #1 team that would mean we should go undefeated for the season

 

[MarcoVol]

Ariel is so nice with it in the field

 

[MarcoVol]

Need this pitcher out of the game

I mean, we’re not hitting well at all today.

But it’s midweek baseball.

That pitcher had us in a blender. Hope the breakthrough is about to happen

 

[Ten_Titans]

Not getting the three to the rim twice.. and then deciding the solution to that problem is to shoot the ball from 4 ft behind the line.

I actually respect it.

I know we're gonna lose a game at some point. I'd honestly rather lose a mid-week game to ETSU than lose to the gata, the corn dog express, the tahd, piggly wiggly, or andy, etc.

 

[drvenner]

I honestly would like etsu to win, for two reasons:

1. Increases likelyhood they get an at large Tournament bid if they dont win the conference

2. Keeps ut’s heads out of their asses and humbles them a bit before sec play

Horrible take.
