Maybe pinch hit Robin Villeneuve for Amick.

 

[Orangeslide]

Wow. When your hot everything goes your way.

 

[RockyTop140]

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

He’s got nasty stuff. That doesn’t excuse the piss poor at bats we’re having though. We’ve faced guys who throw this hard with that movement before

 

[BreatheUT]

Tennessee pathetic at the plate.

When you are playing from behind again - advantage is with the other team until you take the lead.

The lose last night put a sense of urgency in this game. Now we give up a HR in the first inning and we're pressing.

 

[knoxchief]

Never seems that any UT sport can finish. We get close but you know the saying about close!

 

[Vols919]

If I have to stare at the Kent's one more damn time…

Maybe pinch hit Robin Villeneuve for Amick.

Thatll just be another K

 

[Volatile68]

But they can hit our pitchers easy lol. Honestly, winning a championship just wouldn't be the Tennessee thing to do.

 

[VolunteerVFL]

hitters draft stock plummeting

Not a bit actually.

 

[BallinVol]

You can't make this **** up. They are getting all the lucky breaks.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Of course they get that to fall in

Toughen up buttercup.

Tx A&M is just playing TN. The Vols are playing the World Series. The moment seems to be eating them up. I hate that for these boys.

 

[Volnbeers]

He’s out

No one has had stuff like this vs us since Skenes last year.

 

[RockyTop140]

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

Texas A&M is loaded on pitching like we are loaded on hitters. They’re just winning the battle right now

 

[UT Challenger]

Our bats are non-existent now. I don't get it.

Good pitching will do that. I was worried about A&M pitching before it started.

 

[Jravol78]

Looks out to me

 

[vol66]

Out!!!

 

[VFL9798]

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.

He’s not predictable though. He will throw 5 straight balls and then be on target

 

[Panthro]

Out!!!

 

[VolFanGBO]

out

 

[ArmchairQB]

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

My vote: Beam has one for the ages and we all call today the sermon on the mound for the next couple-few decades. Don’t much care if we win 2-1 or 12-1.

 

[OC VOL FAN]

Typical Vols crap. Relevant in everything....superior in nothing. Starting to wonder if we will ever win a national title in anything

 

[BallinVol]

Out
