come on burke

 

[patrick]

Should be 3-1

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Burke is going to see a ton of sliders and breaking balls until he learns to hit them a bit more consistently. It would be stupid to ever throw him a fastball.

 

[RikidyBones]

It's surprising when Burke doesn't swing

 

[Drewbydoo]

Time for 2 out magic

 

[pattiycake]

Oh boy!

 

[OJJ]

MY god....

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Tennessee in trouble with this GA Tech Pitcher, 7ks already

 

[OJJ]

Stupid ABs

 

[volman128]

More swinging at junk.

 

[VolFanGBO]

oh my gosh QUIT.SWINGING.AT.BALLS

 

[Switch 625]

None of these pitches are strikes!!!!

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Because he's throwing gas for strikes.

True but that slider is already broken down by the time you have to make that swing/don’t swing decision.

Of course, I’m not at bat and sitting here at home pacing around my recliner, so maybe they are seeing something I’m not…

 

[OJJ]

4 hits to 1 and we down 2-0

 

[gnm53108]

Looks like the vast majority of those sliders are balls

 

[patrick]

F me.

This pitcher - lord. He has the book on TN hitters. Get us to chase. And we do.

Arghhh. This dude is a tomato can.

 

[RikidyBones]

He reminds me of Giancarlo Stanton when in Miami. Can wreck a ball but man does he swing at dumb stuff.

 

[TJVol95]

Is every Ump in our games a piece of

 

[VolGee4]

GT is one of the NCAA worst pitching teams, this is awful right now

It’s baseball.

 

[AllThingsTN]

Man he’s missing the plate a lot and we keep swinging. Need to adjust.

 

[Weezer]

We have zero patience at the plate.

 

[Caz]

Well…just leaving our guys out there in scoring position. I do believe we may have difficulty hitting a slider.

 

[Voltrapnbama]

How we feeling?

 

[87&91ALUM]

We seem to struggle with Tech teams. Cmon Vols! You can do this! Been there and won before. GBO!

 

[tn88volfan]

i would make him throw 3 strikes, i don’t think he can without throwing 4 balls first
