Great 12-6 pitch to get DD. In CHRIST Alone

 

[volplaya8]

Flat out got fooled there

 

[Aerie Vol]

Nasty curve for that K. We start to pick it up and it's gonna be a dong fest.

 

[Volstylexx]

Nah, that's baseball.

Intent matters. right?!

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Illinois pitcher has a hell of a curve ball to left handed batters.

 

[drvenner]

Fantastic AB by KT too.

 

[volplaya8]

30 plus pitch inning…awesome!

 

[PKT_VOL]

Moore - Fly out to CF.

Burke - Double opposite way down 3B line. Being able to go opposite way is really going to help teams stop shifting so hard to the right on him.

Amick - INF hit 3 feet from the catcher.

*Runners on the corners with 1 out*

Burke scores from 3B on a wild pitch! Amick advances to 2B.

Tears - RBI double line drive between LF-CF to the wall! Amick scores from 2B.

Dreiling - Loud foul ball, backwards K.

Peebles - Fly ball out to CF.

VOLS lead 2-0. End of 1st.

Illinionis starter is at 33 pitches and 1 K's.

 

[Weezer]

2-0 Vols!

Good inning!

I have friends in Lackawanna and Buffalo who got 75+ inches of snow in a single weekend this year. In 2021, a colleague's roof collapsed when almost 7 feet of snow fell overnight... so yeah, we were lucky with only 10 feet for the year. It always amazed me how life didn't change because of the weather. I routinely drove to work when you couldn't see lines on the road - just solid white. We used the heated underground tunnels to get around at U of R and life went on. My students would come to class in flip-flops and shorts anytime we got into the mid-40s.

I have a big Lackawanna about living there

30 plus pitch inning…awesome!

33. Gonna be hard to recover from that for their pen unless he finds some control next inning. He's headed for a 3 inning shower.

The pole that serves little purpose

I intensely dislike the netting. If you go to a game pay attention instead. So that pole? Mmmmm? Completely useless to me and probably you (maybe you appreciate the netting, but I don't.

Man, so sorry for your loss.

 

[Volstylexx]

Can't believe he took that pitch. What was he thinking!?

 

[drvenner]

Big K for Beam

 

[volplaya8]

Froze him..way to go Beam!

 

[Aerie Vol]

#8 called his own strike and had a seat.

 

[volplaya8]

Smdh…well I said it and now we all see it…

 

[drvenner]

Gotta make that play

 

[Tenacjim]
