For those more experienced here, what's the purpose of giving a guy one batter (when it's not a matchup situation). I know it's clearly getting them experience but does 1 batter faced really do much for them?

 

[OldTimer]

Some of us stream cable

That’s true, I’m behind the times

We’re going matchups for the rest of the game. I think I saw Cam in dugout.

Probably just being cautious with him just returning from injury.

It is matchup tho

 

[volsagain]

Seriously, I have nothing better to do this afternoon

Yep Cookout and watch baseball couldn't be better

 

[OldTimer]

[theroyz71]

Great job by the bullpen.

 

[chuckiepoo]

CFA pressing all the correct buttons.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Ive got UT vs BAMA on SECN+ and got Baseball and Softball forums going at the same time. Now if I can figure out how to watch NASCAR at Austin TX road course. I be happy, happy, happy. Wins over the Gumps and Aggies would be sweet.

It gives everyone a shot to show what they can do, competition is a good thing. Never know when it’s your turn, give it all ya got.

CTV is such an idiot. Zander was rolling. Can't believe he took him out. We deserve this loss.


(Sorry. Spent some time in the LV forum during last night's game. May have picked up a few bad habits.)

 

[mr.checkerboards]

By my count, I think we have enough pitchers left to get 9 outs going one out a piece. So heres to another hour

Yep, have friends in and grilling cedar plank salmon, marinated skirt steak and conecuh sausage this afternoon, wife did make a salad….

Crazy! I don't recall ever seeing four different pitchers in a row, but as I said, I'm not that versed to recognize the "why"

 

[taylorvol]

It’s on ESPN Network, no need to stream

Still streaming here via YouTubeTV.

 

[preacherman20]

Yes. Matchups. And any time on mound is SEC with success is worth it.

 

[Vtonerider]

CFA would counter with runners can’t score if batter doesn’t hit.

I'm good with that.

 

[knoxvol52]

I will always have a soft spot for the Reds but am a diehard Braves fan.

Great post if the Dodgers choke this year with that 300 million dollar payroll I'm going become a Yankees fan lol

My dad was in the Air Force. Used to listen to Armed Forces Radio Tennessee vs Bama around 1970 in Madrid Spain. Moved to Lockbourne AFB Ohio and cheered on the Reds in Johnny Bench days. Wound up in McMinnville after dad retired and UT blood orange ever since. Dad would tie the AM radio to a post in the garden and ALLOW my brother and I to listen to Braves while picking weeds. I had a very smart dad. Miss him a lot. We are all Braves fans in my home.

My dad took me to Bench’s steakhouse.

We should do an ASMR video of those hits. The sounds of those bats today were fire.

That was all 3 match-up. Tony got what he wanted 3 up 3 down now with 6 more outs with 6 batters before you get back to top of lineup.
