Pitching is pitiful.

 

[Gladiator1]

Hate to say it but Tony's handling of the pitching reminds me of the Yankees. Alot of team talent but wasted with pitching management

 

[BigALWiLson]

See yall next week. Never understand not bringing in Kirby there.

 

[knoxvol52]

Here comes the Tony bashers..

 

[ETNVolunteer1]

Love Tony but WHY????!!!!! You have got to know when to take your guy out.

 

[Weezer]

The nega-Vols are out in full force today.

 

[Bryan1]

Here comes the Tony bashers..

Deservedly so!

 

[runthrutheT]

That is on Vitello. Snead was cooked. Been skating around danger all day. He ain’t it. We need a closer

 

[barney]

Why do we like going ride or die when the entire freaking bullpen is available so stupid

Vitello almost always plays it that way

 

[NOLAPhil]

Was that an overthrow after the long catch or did burke mess up again?

 

[RAVOL]

Dreiling with an incredible catch.

You would have thought he would pull him after that loud out.

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Now Kirby is being put in, 2 batters too late

 

[volfan__18]

Here comes the Tony bashers..

It’s valid bashing. His pitching management had been questionable since he got here. You just saw Dylan catch what should have been a double off the wall why keep him in?

 

[Orange.]

Why is there no padding on that wall? I guess that black on the wire is plastic, but still. Seems weird.

 

[Weezer]

Let's go Kirby!!!

 

[PKT_VOL]

Snead - Hit batter.

Snead - Backwards K.

Base hit to CF.

*Runners on 2B and 1B with 1 out*

Dreiling makes a spectacular catch while running into the wall!!! An errant throw allows the runner on 2B to advance to 3B.

*Runners on the corners with 2 outs*

3-Run HR out of the park to LF.

Snead's day is done after 66 pitches and 2 K's. Kirby to the mound.

Bama lead 7-5. Bottom of 8th. Bama scores 3 runs in the inning thus far.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

WTH is this

 

[Bryan1]

The nega-Vols are out in full force today.

You see anything positive from that outcome?

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I do agree I think this is on Tony. We have a fresh bullpen thanks to Beam and Causey, and we’ve barely used it today. That is the perfect time to bring a new guy in with Snead at nearly 70 pitches.

 

[AthensVol2007]

Tony left him out there 1 to many. Bad coaching TV. Bad coaching

This has been a blind spot for 7 years. I don’t know how he hasn’t figured it out.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Should have gone maybe to Marcus Phillips and gotten Snead out the game

 

[knoxvol52]

Deservedly so!

You can apply for Head Coach anytime you see fit..

 

[Christian Lowe]

This team is overrated.

They’ll fall to 8-10. And they’re absolutely still that good.

17-13 was most people’s projection for the SEC slate. That’s still about right. Not yet panic time

 

[BigALWiLson]

Here comes the Tony bashers..

Nah. I question giving a guy who hasnt pitched all year a start and going 2.1 innings when he had arms. This is the SEC series wins are everything especially road wins and we choked it away. Plenty of teaching moments. See yall next week

 

[Baulder]

I'm not bashing anyone it's just frustrating of all teams we are going to lose the series to Alabama because everyone watching knew Snead was cooked except the coaching staff
