I don’t you think you do. Very few in here grasp the game of baseball like him.

French has his opinions and follows them up with his thoughts. You may agree or disagree but I respect the fact he lays out his position. I wish others would do the same besides just making a blanket statement.

I'd hope 23 years experience has something to do with it. #TrueBlue

Kirby with 3 strong innings.

Yep, well done.

I was wondering how many he could go.

@preacherman20, be proud, as I know you always are.

well said NorCal….nothing like watching your kid doing something they love, whatever it may be.

Big Dickey is at bat. Gets a one out single up the middle.

 

[OldTimer]

Dude can hit!

 

[cwbytruckers]

Dickey is going to be a fan favorite

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

BOOM ..... Ortega .... RBI double .... VOLS 10-4.

I know I come off as obnoxious and an ass. I see the game a certain way and I'm beginning to understand why football players stay off the FF and Basketball players stay off the BB forum.

Bang!

 

[ArdentVol]

We are throwbacks. Deal with it.

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Somebody wanted 10 points today .... womp womp .... there it is.

Amen Ardent.

There's a difference between last night and today... Tennessee is bludgeoning Baylor to death... Texas caught a few breaks with some timely hitting. Tennessee is a top 10 team IMO.

When you’re playing behind an arm like Hansen, guys play more loose and are more confident. Texas will be hard to beat on a Friday night!
But yes, I agree...we good!
GBO!!

I’d like to know more of your experience, just curious. Not the specifics but the generalities.

Well said. Just kidding.

Yer good man, I will be the first one to admit, I don’t know everything about baseball, and I know even less about pitching. You didn’t throw a player or coach under the bus. All good in my book.

Lasts night game , we had a couple chances to get back in. It’s baseball, I was actually pretty proud of most of the swings we put o. Their starter.

Meh, I enjoy your smarta$$ery. Besides, I’m incapable of analyzing baseball the way some of you can. Hence why you get the “blanket statements” and most often, childish humor posts from me.
I just enjoy Tennessee baseball and the company of this forum.
GBO!!

childish humor is what makes the baseball forum enjoyable. I don’t think most of us takes things too serious anyway…..

Played AAU for the diamond devils in Charleston 18u, Cincinnati flames at 17 for the 18u team. Played against played college at Columbia State and MTSU under coach Peterson. Screwed around academically my junior year after tearing my hamstring on CSS back in the day and that's the story really.

Can personally attest that Eric Hosmer who played for Midland and J Hey for the East Cobb Astros were the real deal.

I’ve been extremely proud so far. Our freshman pitcher went toe to toe with Texas, in week 3. Outside of a rough 1st inning, we have looked good against a solid B12 team. We have some things to work on I’m sure, but I’m not disappointed by what I’ve seen last night and today.
GBO!!
