Fantastic play by Burke

 

[Voltrapnbama]

Nice play

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

C'mon Billy, time to mash one over the left field wall

 

[Orangeslide]

I've not given up, but this game has been so frustrating. Twice we've had bases loaded and failed to score a run. Our most dependable hitters haven't been dependable. It's maddening. Lord, I hope we pull this one out.

They are facing a psycho freak pitcher. He’s elite good.

 

[Vol4lif3]

That’s his mojo. not gonna change

I don’t mind him doing it but you never trash talk while you are down

 

[BallinVol]

Defense is clicking. Get the damn bats going fellas!

 

[patrick]

Another strong inning by QB1.

 

[NOLAPhil]

Every ting but da bats

 

[patrick]

Great play BB. Sorry for dbl post. Screen refreshed.

 

[vol66]

T5, 1-0 bad guys.

 

[Vol8188]

It was a check swing.

lol I wasn’t standing at first, but I feel like he went

 

[Volintheswamp]

Well, our defense looks better today. We’re still in it. Just need the bats to get hot.

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Can we please help Drew!?!?!?!? Please!?!?!?

 

[Gandalf]

Now, for the love of the ALMIGHTY (Eru), can we let those bats start booming and stop leaving them on base? Lets get that 5 point lead that steals their hopes.

 

[Vol4lif3]

I’m am happy our defense showed

 

[RockyTop140]

I may have said this every inning, but we really need some runs here

 

[Vol8188]

ITS 101 MPH. ITS NOT REMOTELY AS SIMPLE AS YOU THINK IT IS.

Not swinging is really simple. So is understanding capitalization

[Volfan2012]

Beam has stepped us for us today. Hitting not so much. I know that guy is tough why you can't give him swings out of the zone like Starks and couple others.

 

[Bryan1]

Man preach! If you threw anyone in here talking **** into a batters box, they’d fold like a cheap lawn chair.

To be fair, I doubt anyone in here watching is or was ever a D1 baseball player playing the game every day.

 

[firestorm]

Please law of averages have the Vols break through with clutch hits to score valuable runs sooner rather than later today.

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

They are facing a psycho freak pitcher. He’s elite good.

He is. But he’s throwing a lot of pitches and is a little wild.

He’s not unhittable. We’ve made his job easy for him a couple times for sure.

 

[Weezer]

They are facing a psycho freak pitcher. He’s elite good.

He has elite stuff, but he's not elite good. Doesn't have the control yet. We've had bases loaded twice. We're beating ourselves.

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

Hope we can chase Cortez here. Can't imagine trying to hit him with the speed, movement, and inconsistency

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Pitching and defense is good, but soft ass hitting is killing the Vols on the bases....Amick won't even swing
