The Official #10 Tennessee @ Georgia Weekend Series Thread (Game 1 Friday @ 6PM) (Game 2 Saturday @ 1PM) (Game 3 Sunday @ 1PM)

I think it’s fair to say, creeping around the back door, we are all a bit concerned about consistency.

Think what this team could actually do if they do correct a few things. This could be a exciting year.

We hung 11 runs while batting .407 on Friday SEC pitching. Our potential is encouraging.

I haven’t lost an ounce of hope because of today. But I am starting to watch other SEC teams and the margin for error is really slim. All the deficiencies you point out must be corrected, but some of it is just talent.

Exactly. Errors, base running mistakes, stranding runners... these are the difference between a win and a loss.

In addition to all that, which is true, Sunday finales in SEC baseball are anything goes type events, we’ll be alright.

Noticed where Johnathan Cannon was on the mound for Georgia tomorrow. Anyone know much about his pitching? As far as today’s game when we were unable to capitalize on the bases loaded situation, I was afraid it might come back to haunt us. Hopefully, we take care of business tomorrow.
 
When Redmon closed out the 8th, I knew we were home free. I made a trip to get gas for the mower and walked in on the review of the sac bunt. And just like that it was over. Damn.

Granted it's early, but the game today feels like a must win.
 
I was thinking about who could potentially hit for Russell or Lipscius, and looking through the stats, there really are not many options. Steenstra is really the only guy that has numbers worthy of being in the line-up. I think we are just going to have to hope those two can get it going.
 
There is an article on DI regarding Liam Spence, I can’t read it $, but if someone could give us the gist that would be great!

I was thinking the same thing yesterday and Steenstra is definitely the “answer” to try for Luc. Evan seems a little harder simply because everyone behind him is batting worse. BUT, they also have much more limited AB’s, so average is (could be) deceiving. I’d like to see what Scott or Booker could do with more AB’s. Evan has had 16 out of 20 games played to get it going and he just can’t. Worse yet is, his outs are K’s which lead to no movement on the base path and are momentum killers. He has twice as many strikeouts as he does hits, I’m pretty sure that’s not a good stat ratio lol. Seniority and LF defense aren’t enough to compensate for the guaranteed outs he’s currently offering up. The strikeout call in the 7th/8th yesterday was horrendous and I laughed at his reaction to the ump but that, combined with nearly charging the mound vs. ETSU during the review, tells me his head isn’t right. His struggles are wearing on him.
