I think he's 3-21 last 2 series

Ouch

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

And we stranded a leadoff single... This whole weekend sucks

[vol94]

I didn’t think KY had good pitching?

 

[BigALWiLson]

Are they gonna see espn or newspapers when they sign mlb contracts ?

 

[JohnD13]

Pathetic

 

[vol66]

Knotted up at 1, B4

 

[Bigorange123]

I wonder if the Vols players ever read these threads after the games played.

I wonder that too. Then I think what I was doing when I was that age. Lol

 

[therealitytheory]

They are alternating between discussing all of our glaring weaknesses and then moving to folksy stories that nobody cares about

Our base-running and inability to keep other teams from running IS glaring. Nothing brutal about pointing that out. And they've complemented the he'll out of us.
They're definitely a cut above Andy working UT games solo.

They don’t. But they have dudes who throw off speed which we don’t hit well.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

That’s true. Just thought they’d have a better showing with a new stadium and #1 team but you make a great point.

If they had a better record and better weather probably but I think colllege baseball has been a hard sell up there.

 

[vol94]

Vols strand Gilbert on 1st.

1-1 tie. Bottom of 4th.
Vols have 5 hits to KY’s 3.

 

[taylorvol]

Has luc touched a ball in last week

Scorched several including his previous AB.

I hope not. I'm never embarrassed to be a Vol fan, but I sure am hell embarrassed by some Vol fans.

 

[TheBigOne10]

Need a few more to have a sit down with Gibby. He’ll get em right.

 

[Jax_Vol]

Is this a six inning game?

 

[I4Vols]

I'm hoping none of this is true

- our young arms get tired or figured out by opposition late in the season
- sliders to our batters become such a norm that Knox County passes an ordinance that you no longer can serve them up at local restaurants
- the ballpark fence at Hoover looks like it's a mile away
- teams attempt to steal on us so much that the fur coat goes missing

Getting exposed hurts
It will be interesting to see what Coach TV does to try to snap them out of this bit o funk before tourney time

 

[imw8n4u]

I wonder that too. Then I think what I was doing when I was that age. Lol

I'm just glad I came up pre smart phone and just at the dawn of social media. I'm not narcissistic enough to be a young person these days.

Most bases stolen on the Vols are actually stolen on our pitchers. For whatever reason we don’t even bother with runners on base. Pitchers are incredibly predictable.

 

[Volstylexx]

This is their best guy. Their Thursday and Friday guys were "TBA". This is the only one they scheduled in advance.

 

[2EastTnVols]

So can our pitchers not hold runners on or is Evan's arm that weak?

7

 

[patrick]

Vols may get swept. Pretty abysmal at bats.

 

[Bigorange123]

Can we get a count of Kentucky fans yawning on camera?

 

[volsagain]

Is this a six inning game?

Just hang on I'm sure they will announce it during the game
