KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Top-ranked Tennessee concludes its home regular season schedule on Tuesday facing Belmont at 6 p.m. at Lindsey Nelson Stadium. The Vols are looking for their 13th midweek victory of the season on Tuesday. A win would mark the second-highest total in a single season since 2001. Prior to the game, Tennessee will honor its seniors for their accomplishments and time spent with the program.

BROADCAST INFO
Tuesday's game will be streamed live on SEC Network+ and the ESPN app with Andy Brock (PxP) calling the action. The online broadcasts can be accessed on any mobile device through WatchESPN. WatchESPN can be accessed through the ESPN App, or online at espn.com/watch.

Fans can also listen to the Voice of Tennessee Baseball John Wilkerson and Vince Ferrara call the game on the Vol Network (FM 99.1/AM 990) as well as UTSports.com and the Tennessee Athletics App.

PROJECTED STARTING PITCHERS
LHP Zander Sechrist (4-0, 1.62 ERA) vs. RHP Jordan Zuger (2-1, 3.03 ERA)

SERIES HISTORY
Overall: Tennessee leads, 12-4
in Knoxville: Tennessee leads, 11-4
in Nashville: Tennessee leads, 1-0
at Neutral Sites: N/A
Last 10 Meetings: Tennessee leads, 9-1

Tennessee is seeking its eighth consecutive victory over the Bruins. The two sides have played each other the last seven seasons (not counting the COVID-shortened year) and Tennessee has taken each meeting. In six of the last seven meetings, the Vols have allowed 3 or fewer Belmont runs.

NOTABLE
Swinging It Well
Totaling the combined home runs hit by Trey Lipscomb, Jordan Beck, Jorel Ortega and Luc Lipcius (58), would rank 77th nationally, ahead of 212 teams.

Vols on the (Rocky) Top
Tennessee regained its position as the unanimous No. 1-ranked team in the country Monday. It marks the seventh week this season UT has been the top-ranked squad in all major polls.

You know, had we not lost that one game with TTU (the wood bat game), then (unless I'm countring incorrectly) a win vs Belmont and a sweep of MSU would have given us a 50 win regular season. That's just nearly unfathomable that we even still have a *great* chance at a 49 win season. This team is unreal.

I have a feeling that I will be telling my grandkids about this season several years down the road. Truly a special team we have.
