[txbo]

Who do we play today & what time? In all the excitement from last night .... I'm kinda lost.

Liberty.
6:00 et

 

[NorCalVol67]

And Wilkerson’s call of that is instant Vol classic.

Anybody thought about bailing Orange Juice out this morning?

They will not let him out yet, he is keeping them too entertained.

Liberty at 6:00, I believe.

Lol.

Whoever goes to get him needs to remember to take him some clothes to wear home.

This made me laff out loud.

 

[vol66]

Lol.

Why?

I gotta find it.

..... at least some socks & shoes.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I still can’t find my shirt.

Sounds like a personal problem.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

This is amazing.

That right there .... brings tears to my eyes. That's the VOLS season wrapped up in a moment of time.

 

[TN_gal]

I still don’t have my voice this morning. All raspy.

Our team is already battle tested from both SEC conference and tournament experience. I believe those experiences laid the groundwork for Drew’s 9th inning grand slam walkoff. I’ll say it again: Never count our team out. They will fight until the final out. As Drew said last night, if they get punched, it only makes them tougher. Excited for tonight’s game versus Liberty!

 

[87&91ALUM]

This is amazing.

In a sea of orange!

So glad we didn't have to listen to Bob Kesling on the call. Can you imagine?

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

This is amazing.

Drew hit an 0-1 beach ball. WS players sitting on the bench looking shocked as he rounds 3rd base.... beautiful...

Grand slam by number #1 and looks like #2 on second.

Oh, Lawd have mercy .....Dilbert hits a grand slam.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I still want to know where Vitello was taking off running to.

 

[NorCalVol67]

I still want to know where Vitello was taking off running to.

He was like Jimmy V after NC State won, he wasn't sure.

 

[ArdentVol]

Why?

lauging a little harder

 

[Switch 625]

Other than the ump behind the plate sucking, does anyone know why UT coaches were irate with him? Was it more than just bad officiating? Seems like he might have said or done something to upset them. Even Pav and the pitching coach were yelling at him.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Are you like the son of @OrngeJuiceJones? What’s going on here?

What in the world....

 

[vol66]

What in the world....

#6???

From what I saw, or think I saw, a few of our batters asked for the ump to call time out before a pitch was delivered, but the ump would not call for the time out. I'm guessing he thought they were asking too late. Each time it happened, the batter was frustrated and Tony got upset, asking for an explanation. The ump then waved him off, and that seemed to trigger Tony. I think that's what happened. And add that to the frustration of the bizarre strike zone of that ump, and it got to the boiling point. I was happy Tony kept his cool and didn't get thrown out.

Thanks. That wasn’t obvious on TV. The announcers couldn’t figure it out either.
