The Official Tennessee vs LSU College World Series Game 1 Thread (Sat. June 17 7PM EST) ESPN

[Tenacjim]

That was high

And outside….

 

[LordVOLdemort]

Fresh count for Zane at least.

Only thing that I could think since he was down in the count. But still….

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

Fresh count for Zane at least.

Middle of the lineup is all that is showing life right now

 

[peerless98]

IMO, our approach should be to run his pitch count up and get to the pen

 

[GoVolunteers]

I like Zane leading off next inning… GBO!

 

[rocktopper16]

Wasn’t odd. He has 9 strikeouts thus far. Either Zane makes contact or he strikes out there. He hasn’t thrown many balls.

 

[DukeDaisySam]

Why is he stealing there

To try and get into scoring position for one of UT’s hotter hitters. Going to have to take some chances.

 

[volman128]

LSU is looking unbeatable tonight

They pretty much are with Greatest Pitcher Ever (according to ESPN) on the mound.

 

[VolPack22]

What’s Maui’s draft projection?

I would think 3rd-5th round.

 

[OC VOL FAN]

That second strike was absolute garbage

The 2nd strike was definitely a strike. The first was not.

 

[Zues1]

Big inning for Lindsay right here.

 

[Orange931]

LSU is looking unbeatable tonight

Everybody has looked unbeatable against us all year until the second half of games

 

[rocktopper16]

Same placement last inning was a strike. The fuuuuuu

 

[Volprofch05]

We were probably trying to steal a base there seeing as a pitch level with Zane’s head is somehow a strike…

 

[Majors]

That was a Butch Jones “check the chart” steal call.

Not a bad move to get Denton back up

 

[ButchPlz]

At least that shin ball is consistent.

 

[VolFanGBO]

THATS TWO ****ING STRIKES HE MISSED IN A ROW

 

[Volnanza]

Why does SEC nation show the replay of the 1997 SEC championship with Peyton and Al Wilson when we are playing in the CWS?

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Can't stand any LSU team in any sport!!

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

Two things that drive me nuts with baseball players. Wearing sunglasses on your hat at night and wearing sunglasses on your hat with the sun in your eyes, why do you even have them?

That dude had me dying. Even the announcers were laughing at him. Using his hand to block the sun....if only there was a fancy device to block the sun that is sitting on your head....sums up the IQ of LSU

 

[Christian Lowe]

Not to be "nit-picky" but aren't 3 or 4 more than 2?

I said at best, most likely 2 is enough with Skenes pitching. That’s all we put up on them in game 1

 

[Vtonerider]

Looks like only LSU gets the letter-high strike

 

[GetEmVols]

Feels like we are losing by 10

 

[vol94]

They were ranked #2 in the preseason. Hard to overachieve that

And very, very overrated. They had no business being #2. Coach V even said during off-season it would take time for this team to gel. The rankings were based off of our pitching but a team must field and bring the bats. This team made countless errors first half of season.

 

[Franklin_Vol09]

The strike zone for LSU is quite a bit bigger.
