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

hope they don’t score again. 2 runs would really put us on the edge in the box.

 

[Caz]

And of course they get a lucky hit and we can't buy anything

We’ve had our chances.

For the love of MIKE and all that’s holy….how many weird @$$ bounces are they going to get that go their way???

 

[DC_Vol]

At times, yes he is. But badly inconsistent. Has an elite arm but will never make in the big leagues unless he figures out how to throw more strikes than balls. We are making him look better than he is. I was more impressed by their closer last night.

I agree! They have very good arms.

Fat lady is warming up. Let's not let her start singing!

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

I just hate how baseball can be so cruel. Thats a crap swing that turns into a base hit

 

[patrick]

Get the pen working.

 

[firestorm]

A&M’s pitching is red hot right now. Although, I’ll agree that there’s no excuse for loading the bases twice and coming away with nothing. You do that and you won’t win many games.

It’s the kind of flaw expected of the Indians in the comedy movie Major League.

He should have barehanded that ball and the batter would have been out. His defense has been bad all year And cost us some runs.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Man those black units look hot as heck. Sapping energy for sure.

 

[barney]

Beam throwing more balls

 

[patrick]

Turn two baby.

 

[Volfan39]

He should have barehanded that ball and the batter would have been out. His defense has been bad all year.

Even if he barehands that guys probably safe. That’s also a lot to ask of a player

 

[chuckiepoo]

Beam implosion incoming?

Did you just get cut off at the bar?

 

[Voltrapnbama]

walk here and get him out

 

[deezvols]

Aside from running his pitch count up, Cortez is not slowing down. We are in serious trouble if we can't change the narrative in the next couple innings. This is looking more and more like a pitching clinic and we are yet again gonna be brides maids if noone steps up

Pitcher throws more balls than strikes and it’s a “clinic”?

 

[barney]

Can we replace the equipment staff with someone who won't put our guys in black during the hottest part of the day?

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

Man....wish Beam would have gotten some help today...

 

[patrick]

Beam throwing more balls

Fading fast.

Need to get pen ready fast.

 

[Drewbydoo]

I'd love to see a pitch out for an out. js

 

[PalmettoStateVol]

That’s not what was being said. You said anyone that can’t hit a 101 mph fastball is nothing. You’re wrong. Stop.

No, that's not what I said. Stop putting words in my mouth. I said a guy predicted to go in the first round of the MLB draft better be able to hit a 101 mph fastball, period.

He's gonna see that a lot in the near future. If he can't do it consistently, he'll have a short tenure in the League.

 

[Christian Lowe]

walk here and get him out

No one warming up

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Beam cmon settle down...

 

[LLcoolDave]

Beam is starting to run on fumes

 

[VOLinAL]

Just hope their guy from last night can’t go anymore tonight or we are toast. We need to get into their garbage if they even have any.
