The Official #1 Tennessee @ Texas A&M National Championship Game 2 Thread (Sun. June 23 2PM EST) (ABC)

I don’t understand

A&M pitchers are superior to Tennessee's bats. Pretty simple. They're getting smoked out there 2 days in a row.

 

[LLcoolDave]

if someone just tuned in for the first time watching this team hit, no way they'd believe it's the top HR hitting team in the country

I was so confident that the Vols would show up stacked packed and jacked.

My confidence is regressing with the conclusion of each of our at bats - Vols on the struggle bus at the plate.

 

[FranklinVFL]

Up to now, we are proving that good pitching beats good hitting.

 

[Go47]

Good pitching AND lack of focus at the plate is the winning formula right now for TAMU.

 

[Orangeslide]

We need Cortez to lose it. We ain’t hitting him if he’s on.

He’s a sure fire pro. Dont think we’ve seen anyone like him this year. Gotta hope he loses the strike zone and get him out of the game

 

[SAPPER 5]

I'm at a loss... c'mon boys!

 

[Volfan2012]

If were not going to get anything out of the 3 and 4 spots going to be a long day.

 

[ArmchairQB]

He went 89 pitches against Oregon.

Was he all over the place then too? Schlossnagle is over there hands on hips looking like a walking ulcer lol. The guy is bizarre, almost unhittable and then wild from one pitch to the next.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

No we are playing team with loaded arms with major league talent.

Best money can buy

 

[vols 30]

Good season boys. See you next year.

On to football already?

 

[Orangeslide]

Superman is up

 

[dalton_vol]

At this point, I would just love to bunt the guy over

 

[volsagain]

Cortez isn’t going to be around that much longer.

Hope your right guy is too inconsistent to nail down. Got to hope Beam stays on.

 

[VolFanGBO]

Im tired of listening about Kaeden Kent

 

[Rockytoptalker]

Is there some strategic value to getting down 0-1 in the count every other at bat? Just keep watching them go right down the middle

 

[Dougie_D]

I’m not a baseball guru guy but is it possible that TN has always played against mediocre pitching up till now? Vs TXAM?

 

[cwbytruckers]

No show Billy and Kavaras is killing us

 

[Go47]

Up to now, we are proving that good pitching beats good hitting.

Yes.

 

[volmoon]

Cortez is predictable but our guys don’t seem to get it yet. Cortez will throw the curve strike approximately 80% of first pitches. He throws slider and fastball mostly as chasers. Just sit on the curve and forget the others.

 

[floridavol25]

This team is making it sooo hard not to be negative … just pathetic plate appearances once we get a guy on.. not sure why we don’t try small ball at all trying to at least move a guy over

 

[vol66]

Good season boys. See you next year.

Door is that way.

 

[FranklinVFL]

Do you see the **** this guy is throwing? He throws a 100mph fastball that breaks a foot and a half. Good luck

Doesn’t help when you swing at sliders that break 1-2’ off the plate.

 

[theroyz71]

No that was just Ensley's.

We've had a bunch of candidates for that award.

 

[VOLED]

Maybe these guys read too much about how good they are batting. They have disappeared to this point.
