Pretty good start

 

[vol66]

Only standing room next year, all actual seats will be season tickets moving forward. So no more show up at the ticket office and buy a seat, just season tickets

That’s sad.

 

[Volstylexx]

Everyone feeling good after that big win over Bama last night ??

 

[Ritzwatch]

Liking this start. Now, for a little siesta with the game on in the background….

 

[@1RBFjr]

Greetings from LNS! It’s a great day for Tennessee baseball (particularly after dealing with asbestos removal at home)!

 

[Aerie Vol]

It's only the B 1st inning. He isn't warmed up yet.

39 pitches.

He bound to be hot now.

BG pen gonna be praising the run rule this weekend.

 

[OldTimer]

Ha, times have changed, our goal is not to win the series, it’s to Sweep the Series! This ain’t 2012…….

I feel like a hundred dollars

My broom is ready

 

[Volstylexx]

That’s sad.

I don’t think it’s sad. I think it speaks to the fact they can and have sold every single seat they manage to put in.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

I smell a run rule game in the offing.

It is in effect. BG probably can't wait for the umps to call it too.

Almost same view from seven years ago today (and a smaller crowd).

 

[mattdingus2002]

That’s sad.

Yeah, so likely gonna be a very empty stadium moving forward

 

[WillisWG]

nice hit, dang it

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

No outs, we have action in the pen.

They shouldn’t be in too big of a hurry. They’re not that far from home. Hell, poor Albany’s team bus is just now getting home to NY after last week’s visit.

Wasn't that a big load off their shoulders by getting a huge win in Tuscaloosa?

 

[mattdingus2002]

The problem is the seats are always empty, if they’re willing to trade a few bucks for a bad environment then let them face the consequences. It’s not like they don’t make 150k-200k off parking every event in TBA

Nope. South Carolina is even more important. Then Kentucky Saturday. No breaks for them anymore until season ends.

 

[PKT_VOL]

Schaefer - BB (full count).

Double down the 3B line to the wall in LF. Runners on 3B and 2B with no outs.

RBI sacrifice fly to deep CF. Runner on 3B scores. Runner on 2B advances to 3B.

Schaefer - BB.

VOLS lead 4-1. Top of the 2nd.

*Schaefer is pulled after ~25 pitches and 0 K's.*

 

[ArdentVol]

trying to get accustomed to be atop the SEC in basketball and diamond vols leading SEC east, sorry wildcats.

Yep…this…slight break for Sec tournament but winning that would also be nice

I’m not sure how you arrive that conclusion. You do see the number of folks in attendance right? Last week, LNS broke the stadium’s all time attendance record. Then this week, they broke it again. I understand you don’t like seeing empty premium seats, but let’s not act like this is a horrible thing. There is no litmus test required for season tickets. If someone has the money to buy a premium chair and doesn’t want to go. So be it. That money funds the expansions that the rest of us common folk get to enjoy.

 

[mattdingus2002]

Are we in a golden era for vol sports? Football is good again, basketball is consistently an elite program, baseball has been to the CWS 2 of past 3 years, softball is coming off a CWS appearance. I don’t think any time has ever been as good as it is now

He’s likely upset at student seats being moved to SRO. iirc he’s a student currently.

But the stadium is as full as it’s ever been, and expanding. Again, our premium seats being empty is pretty standard for this part of the season across all the elite SEC schools.
