Maybe our strategy is to make this guy work so we get to the bullpen early

Blue is bailing him out, he ain’t that good.

 

[Franklin_Vol09]

We might be in a bit of trouble

 

[volman128]

Junk pitchers. I loathe thee

 

[hUTch2002]

If we ever get on that curve this kid is done

He’s throwing so many you’d think we would sit on it. Easier said than done though. We will time it up.

 

[lilesrt]

Working the pitch count is a good strategy, but not if we swing at trash and look at strikes.

 

[youcancallmeAl]

Hold em now, Blade.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Another goose egg inning for the Vols. Need a shut down defense inning top third. Gonna need a lot of those. GOVOLS!

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Good Grief .... amateur hour for UT baseball tonight.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

That strikeout pitch to Burke was a great pitch. Have to give credit where it's due. It was straight up nasty. Hat tip.

It was. His breaking ball starts out head high then drops to the stomach.
GBO!!

 

[runthrutheT]

Teams are beating us by using our strength against us…our aggressiveness. Not staying back on a guy that throws 91 and has a good curve. Gonna be a long night.

 

[lilesrt]

Let’s go Vols.

 

[BP4Prez]

Blue is bailing him out, he ain’t that good.

The umpire has been fine

 

[mr.checkerboards]

The ND pitcher is throwing well, have to give him some credit. He hasnt made mistakes for this team to punish, so far.

 

[BoonshillVol]

score please

 

[patrick]

Im bit stunned right now.

Don’t know what to say.

 

[VFFL@THE BEACH]

We might be in a bit of trouble

We are fine, just pressing a little bit. We will settle in and do well.

 

[runthrutheT]

Also, Blade has to stop grooving 0-2 fastballs down the pipe. Throw a couple out of the zone geesh

 

[mr.checkerboards]

It was. His breaking ball starts out head high then drops to the stomach.
GBO!!

I used to throw a curveball like that. Kids are so used to sliders that it confuses the hell out of people.

 

[drvenner]

Long way to go

 

[Boomer78]

Unfortunately, that homerun was belt high right down the middle. We are good. Let’s go!!!

On an 0-2 count to a guy with 3 home runs all year

 

[youcancallmeAl]

?

 

[cobbwebb0710]

He’s throwing so many you’d think we would sit on it. Easier said than done though. We will time it up.

5th inning will be a different story.
GBO!!

 

[Pacer92]

We need to quit swinging at every first pitch…and quit throwing 0-2 fastballs belt-high down the middle….and we will get back in this game..

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

Also...Manning was in Omaha last year

 

[volman128]

5th inning will be a different story.
GBO!!

You can't wait til the 5th inning to get going this time of the year.
