ok bats COME ALIVE

 

[volfever007]

Maybe you should go read what you first responded to when I said walks and errors are what is costing us….can you read?

Yes, I understand what you're saying and I agree with you but, you said it's hard to blame it on pitching and I was just saying giving up 11 hits has a while lot to do with it.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I don’t agree with brining Snead in down 4. You can’t trot out the entire bullpen in a game one loss.

You get a day off in between games. Snead can pitch again Sunday. And if we lose today the season is done anyway. We aren’t winning 4 in a row.

 

[volz2wallz]

Now let's get the lead!!

 

[LordVOLdemort]

I just don’t get leaving Benhke in against someone batting .400 vs lefties… do we wanna be in the losers bracket???

 

[931Vol]

I just can’t imagine why we are throwing Snead. I hope I’m wrong, but this game is over. Feel like we needed to save him for Sunday. Hope the bats back up Tony’s decision, but throwing Snead when we are down 4 in the 7th is questionable.

 

[LieutenantNeyland]

Why can’t we have nice things?

Because we are Vol fans? My BVS is fully Enflamed.

 

[vol66]

1 pitch…1 out…Legoooooooooooooo!!!!

 

[Caz]

I know I’m just a couch coach and my opinions isn’t worth the paper it’s written on, but you have an open base with two outs and their hottest hitter tonight at the plate. I truly don’t get why we gave him anything good to hit and didn’t just put him on to make a force out at any base.

Makes sense, but we’d probably walked in a run.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Barely…we get a break. Gotta score a dozen at this rate.

 

[Orangeslide]

Too much thinking by TV, goes back to the early pull of Stamos and cascaded from there

I agree. Tony was to antsy. Should never have pulled him after 8 pitches. That’s on Tony.

 

[vols4lfe]

Leaving Behnke was really lazy.

Mostly because the whole reason Stamos was pulled so early was the FSU cleanup hitter cleans up against lefties. Seems like the script should have been followed in the later innings too.

Yea I would have pushed Combs more.... He was in a bind but he had been competing his ahh off

 

[spyfish007]

Has any team won it all in the loser bracket?

4 times from game 1 loss.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

So how do we match up with UVA?

 

[BreatheUT]

Learn situational baseball please..when errors are made and hits come after we should already have 3 outs…pretty tough to blame it on the pitching…but I get that most don’t understand baseball…have a good one!

The two that FSU scored were due to two walks. It was the pitching.

 

[vavolfan6]

FSU is the better club

I think we have better depth to beat them in a game of 3 series, but with their ace, its hard to argue they shouldn't beat us in most game 1s.

 

[vol24/7/365]

Might as well throw up either way

 

[LLcoolDave]

So how do we match up with UVA?

not confident with our pitching

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

4 times from game 1 loss.

So the chances are incredibly slim.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I just can’t imagine why we are throwing Snead. I hope I’m wrong, but this game is over. Feel like we needed to save him for Sunday. Hope the bats back up Tony’s decision, but throwing Snead when we are down 4 in the 7th is questionable.

He can pitch again Sunday. I don’t know why people don’t understand this. Unless he throws like 60 pitches the next two innings he can pitch again Sunday.

 

[SGMVols]

Why can’t we have nice things?

I am only 35 but I genuinely believe I won’t live to see the next time UT wins a natty in any sport.

 

[Vtonerider]

Combs is literally the only guy that won’t be available on Sunday

Uh...is there a " stupid take" thread I missed?

 

[volplaya8]

Quick hook on Stamos was just wrong. It set the tone for the whole game. Eight pitches. That showed we were scared and had no confidence. TV will remember that wrong decision for a long long long time.

I get it at the time…TV was thinking it was going to be a pitchers dual when he did it….this game is just far from that now. I would have stuck with him since it wasn’t even his fault we were in the situation…but it happens…
