Oof

Theyre not going to chase records with a title on the line. A long 8th and hes done.

I think he only needs 2 more strike outs but I agree, he wont be out there in the 9th

 

[LivinginthePast]

Well maybe we can make a comeback against Stanford

 

[Christian Lowe]

Stanford gonna throw their freakish lefty against us on Monday. Will not be easy.

And he for damn sure ain’t coming out of the game

 

[volfan102455]

Following online. Is LSU getting a big strike zone?

In my opinion yes. Could be that some of them are so fast the ump can't really see where the ball is at but some of them are not in the strike zone.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

only have a couple of guys on our team with the ability to take what they get and hit it to opposite field

We get way too pull happy and that kills our offense. Gotta look middle away sometimes.

God I wish we had got Skenes

We had to pile all our NIL bucks after football for basketball players that Rick Barnes could turn from reliable scorers into guys who are afraid to shoot come March. Makes too much sense for TN to pile into programs that can actually make post-season runs but that’s why the past 30 years have been empty trophy cases at UT while LSU has put 3 football trophies and 2 baseball in the care in that same period. Thing are better under White but history has a tendency to weigh down programs.

Sewell serving up batting practice now....

 

[beachvol23]

We can’t catch a break

Exactly what I was about to write!!!

 

[mr.checkerboards]

And he for damn sure ain’t coming out of the game

I think hes a lefty too

 

[theroyz71]

Sewell doesn't have it tonight

 

[barney]

So the outfield has just quit?

 

[mattdingus2002]

Sewell being hit easily, maybe go Russell noq

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Sewell serving up batting practice now....

Sewell is kinda waving the white flag tbh

 

[LivinginthePast]

Damn it

 

[GhostVol]

Just give skenes 0-1 every at bat. Brilliant. Do you not remember us taking first pitch strikes down the middle for the first month or two of the season? Didn’t work out that great

Didn't say "just stand there with the bat on your shoulder"

Said "don't go up there cutting hard at first pitch thinking it's a heater"

 

[Donniewf]

Skenes is putting on a clinic!

Got to give him credit, definitely gas a tin of command over his pitches.

 

[LivinginthePast]

They are playing lights out

 

[Christian Lowe]

Sewell doesn't have it tonight

Nah but at least he got the distinction of being the only UT guy with two Omaha apps. We weren’t winning regardless

 

[NOLAPhil]

Should have left in Halvorsen

 

[VolFanGBO]

Are we ever going to win a championship in any sport again?

 

[Zues1]

Did I see the first base coach give the runner something to eat ?

 

[barney]

Can we not burn anymore pitchers?

 

[Orange931]

Are we ever going to win a championship in any sport again?

Yes, football this year

 

[Christian Lowe]

Some team last weekend gave every player that made it to first a gummy worm
