Sounds right. Should reflect one pitch.

One pitch, three outs. About as efficient as you can get. Let’s just start intentionally walking the first 2 batters of every inning and turn a triple play. 9 pitches, 27 outs.

That was the triple play I guess?

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

I can’t believe I missed that, did everyone here lose their ever loving minds?

I saw it at like 12:30 AM, then I listened to the 10th inning of Wilkerson’s call. That FloSports thing…but I was too tired for that.

Did anyone find out why the umpire had Stamos throw out his original glove? CTV wasn’t happy about that.

What’s this about?

What’s this about?

HPU disqualified the glove he took he field with…. Replaced with a blue glove. Not sure why.

 

[volplaya8]

Zander on the mound tonight…woooo!!!! Bats will also come alive. Hopefully get Tears in lineup.

That’s not the box score I expected.

What were you expecting?

What were you expecting?

A bunch of hits. Reports coming out of camp had me expecting to give up some runs but a potent offense.

Patience.

Well, after years and years of following summer ball (Go Miners), it’s just too many games, too many players coming and going, I decided to skip the off season, and much to my surprise…I don’t feel like I missed much. I also have zero expectations which is refreshing I guess.

 

[txbo]

Patience.

Oh I’ve got it. Couldn’t be more excited about what I’ve seen from the pitching staff.

Much better defensive team. Pitching depth is sick. Hammers are coming.
Enjoy the show.

I can vouch…you can’t be a Vol Baseball fan if you don’t have patience and lord knows…golly…to watch a kid grow up and end up on the staff….nuts.

I think the FLOTV website said something about it being due to “discoloration.” Ironic, given the turquoise glove he ended up with on the mound.

His originally glove was pretty basic—didn’t see any white. Maybe it was loose strings that OK complained about but I didn’t see anything. The turquoise glove replacement was unique and worked well for the triple play.

Found it here:

Yea, forgot to mention defense. We’ve seen some great plays already. Burke has obviously put in a lot of work. He looks great.

That is really cool.

Sounds a bit like they might have been concerned about a foreign substance?
