@rockytopinsider Mistake hurts them again. It will be a long season with this kind of defense.

T2: UCLA's Aiden Aguayo reaches on a Henry Ford throwing error with two outs. Ford's throw was short and Clark's foot barely came off the bag while making the catch. Call of safe was reviewed and stood. UT 0, UCLA 0

@benmckee14 Bad baseball there. Tough to watch that inning.
English
@wesruckerTBA These are the type of plays that happen TO TENNESSEE we we play Florida.
I'm not celebrating...yet.
English
Joey Aguilar blindside sacked and stripped, and somehow he recovers it himself.
Then on third-and-17, Tennessee just hands the ball to Star Thomas, who rumbles 52 yards to the Florida 1-yard line and somehow doesn't fumble despite a hellacious punch near the goal-line.

@Josh_Ward Heupel has Vols competitive and relevant again. He definitely has some things to work on. The team has performed better than I expected so far this year which makes the losses frustrating. They are making too many mistakes. I don’t want to go back to the decade of dysfunction.
English
Strong vote of support for Josh Heupel from Kirk Herbstreit.
(Plenty of Tennessee fans share Kirk’s opinion, by the way.)

“Lock Josh Heupel and his staff down for 100 YEARS!” 🗣️🗣️ #nonstop

@CzarKilo this is too funny. It is time for the Vols and Joey Swaguilar to give the dawgs their first loss of the year. #GoVols

My best friend is a Georgia fan. Earlier this week, I mailed him a Power-T onesie for his newborn as a joke. They put the baby in it, took a photo for “uncle J”, let her shit in it, and mailed it back to me with a little note that said “Go Dawgs.” It’s game week. 😤

@wesrucker247 Just couldn’t get the bats going today. Take the L today and win Sunday and Monday. GBO!

Tennessee has one of the top offenses in college baseball.
Arkansas has some great arms, and two of them shoved today. Is what it is. Take the L and come back tomorrow and be better.

@govols0908 @wesrucker247 Our entire team except 3 players are a guaranteed out

@wesrucker247 Now capitalize. This part of the order has not done that well today.
English
Dalton Bargo legged out an infield single there to open the bottom of the seventh. He sprinted full go out of the box, and that was the difference.
And now with a passed ball, he's on second base.
English
@benmckee14 Let’s see if they have a rally in them. I am not sure they have one this year. Maybe they came back at Ole Miss.
English
@Bradford_James_ @vols_galaxy @benmckee14 Don’t worry we won’t get that lucky. They will probably come back and only allow one more inning because of time. Vols will go 3 up 3 down.
English
@vols_galaxy @benmckee14 Won’t matter. It’ll default to last completed inning if they’re not able to complete the game.
English
And now the game is headed into a weather delay because of lightning.
Nightmare scenario for the Vols.

Vanderbilt catcher Colin Barczi takes Tanner Franklin deep on an 0-2 pitch with two outs. The two-run homer gives Vandy a 5-3 lead in the sixth a batter after Braden Holcomb nearly hit a go-ahead home run.
English
@benmckee14 Poor hitting with RISP. Poor pitching when ahead in the count. Poor defense giving them free baserunners. Can’t even get lucky. Hopefully they can find something for the tournament.
English
@thevolbros And they can’t two 0-2 pitches left over the middle.
English
@thevolbros They just cannot push the runners across. It is so frustrating. Hopefully defense can have a clean inning.
English
Tough break for the BaseVols there. Levi Clark ripped the ball; unfortunately it was just right at the SS. 5 feet either direction would have been an RBI single.
English
@rockytopinsider They are just struggling to open it up. Leaving so many on base.
English
E5: Clark grounds into a fielder's choice to end the inning.
Tennessee 3, Vanderbilt 3
English
What was ruled an Otega Oweh 3 late in the half was changed to a two after review.
Tennessee by 15 at the break, instead of 14.
English
@GirthBrooksVol @benmckee14 This is really the first chance they had to get more pitching in. Every other game ended early. The work will be good as we go through the season.
English
@benmckee14 We had much of the bottom half of our pitching staff out there. Let’s not get carried away. Ride a few longer and it’s over 45 mins ago.
English
Kudos to ETSU. That was a heck of a baseball game. Bucs made several impressive plays throughout the game.

FINAL: East Tennessee State hands No. 1 Tennessee its first loss of the season, 7-6, in 10 innings. Vols gave up a two-run homer in the top of the ninth to tie the game, and a go-ahead homer in the 10th. 247sports.com/college/tennes…
