The Official Tennessee vs LSU CWS Game Thread (Tues. 6/20 7PM EST ESPN)

[BreatheUT]

That absolutely sucked. Our best hitter didn’t get at least 3 pitches to look at.

 

[newyorkvol]

Damn it son. Stop swinging at every first pitch.

Especially in that situation….two out man on second. Take a pitch.

 

[cwbytruckers]

Why swing at the first pitch? Work the count.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Dickey was going to swing at the first pitch no matter where it was thrown and LSU knew it. Be patient man. Damn.

 

[Baulder]

Man that wasn't very Dickey like. Dude had just walked one and hit the other and you got hacking at first pitch and are late on 89? Rough
Edit: Not quite a walk

 

[GhostVol]

Why TN's batters are swinging at the first pitch is beyond me at this point

Every time they've made him work they've been productive

 

[barney]

Dickey never settled there

 

[Proud Army Wife]

This is beyond frustrating. What on earth is the problem with our bats!?

 

[RockyTop140]

Dickey swings early in the count way too often in big situations

Noticed that too. However he also comes through pretty often in those situations.

 

[Orange931]

Doesn’t look like our day, wouldn’t be shocked with a final score of 5-0

I hope that’s sarcasm

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

& Ben McDonald LSU great did the prior game

to be fair, Big Ben is one of the best college baseball announcers there is.

 

[Gilbert]

Dickey’s gotta be better than that. Best hitter, in that situation, and swinging at that first pitch.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

8 and 9 kills us offensively, I hope they prove me wrong tonight

Inning

KILLERS

 

[RAVOL]

JD what are you doing Bailing this guy out ugh. Get the next one. Let's go Drew shut them down again your run support is coming. In CHRIST Alone

 

[84Volfan]

2-2

Wrong

 

[NOLAPhil]

Hit, crap, hit, walk, crap....hit,crap, crap. Stop the crap.

 

[Voltrapnbama]

1 feels like 5 here. LSU will put a couple more up for sure.

 

[RockyTop140]

2-2

He lined out on the 2nd pitch of the game.

 

[IH8TheHaslams]

Jeeeeezzzzz terrible piece of hitting but it all starts with Scott and Stark. They are inning killers

Need to upgrade big time, they look clueless at the plate

 

[87&91ALUM]

Do not give up! We are getting hits. We are home team and only down one against a really good team. Like Jimmy Buffett said during a rain storm…play on through!

 

[RAVOL]

Dickey’s gotta be better than that. Best hitter, in that situation, and swinging at that first pitch.

And pitch wasn't good.

 

[Shakinthefat]

2 out rally coming

Nope , one pitch pop up. Wait for your pitch

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Until he hits a rope to right center

Good hit that did nothing for scoreboard

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

One of the announcers won a CWS title at LSU in 1991

He hides it so well

 

[KptVFL]

1 run game. We'll get it going!
