I’m guessing Joyce starts.

 

[NO SIR EEE]

Goodnight fellas

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

But you’ll sleep through the game tomorrow

I will be in Sharkeys Radford at 3pm

Nice pitching by Wyatt Evans to close it out. Wild game. Our Good guys playing for the SEC Championship tomorrow.

It’s GREAT to be a TENNESSEE VOL!

GO VOLS!!!

Wyatt’s going to be special—seems to be gaining confidence.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

I’m guessing Joyce starts.

I think it’ll be him or Sewell

 

[taylorvol]

I will be @ the game tomorrow and look forward to meeting those in attendance.
615-260.2583. I will be wearing my Kirby jersey.

Safe travels. Enjoy the game!

Hopefully Drew Beam is able to leave that Drew Beam back in Hoover. Lucky that he didn't give up way more than he did. [I think that almost 3 run homer was one of his pitches, right?]

 

[DownTheField]

It's a good day to get another title

 

[taylorvol]

Good call. I’m thinking combo with Joyce starting and Sewell coming in after 5.

I feel like he settled in nice and the outing was just what the doctor ordered headed into regionals but maybe that's just me

2am and I just heard something in my backyard.

Nevermind, it was just Burke’s ball landing.

He got away from his fastball for whatever reason. Control (or lack there of) was uncharacteristic of him tonight.

For those who attended the games, is parking easy to find? Are there restaurants and hotels near the stadium? Thanks

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Good Night .... or .... Good Morning ... which is it now ..... I'm so confused.

Be seeing y'all come 3 PM ET.

Yes yes yes... Hoover is a good location. Lots of stuff near interstate, especially near galleria and north of Birmingham in Trussville

I’m going to be a zombie later today. But my cousin James is a Kentucky fan. I told him that this game wouldn’t be played in a monsoon so the Vols were due.

This dedication is to Cuz…Water didn’t work for your Cats tonight:

What? He pitched 3.1 innings, gave up zero runs, and struck out 6 with 4 walks. His command was a little off but every team in the country would put him in their starting rotation.

[allvol123]

I knew he was about to mash that guy’s offering. Kid is insane.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

If we win by 5 I will take 10 shots of fireball, chug 3 beers and egg my neighbors house

We get video, right?

That's a season high 4 walks in 3.1 innings. Uncharacteristic, and I hope he leaves that in Hoover.

Didn't think that was that crazy of a thing to say, heh.

And while he didn't give up a run, that foul ball was damn close to being a 3 run homer for UK and a 9+ ERA night. [I mean, that was Beam, right? Neither person that replied interacted with that part of my comment, and I cannot even find the live stats for the game to check if I'm wrong about that.]

Well, giving up 0 runs is of course the important thing--but you want a starter to go more than 3 innings, obviously, and you can't walk 4 in that short a stint; you are asking for trouble. A bona fide starter should be going 5-6 innings regularly. I know we've got a lot of pitching depth, but you don't necessarily want to throw 4 pitchers a game.
