Kentucky @ Tennessee - Sunday edition

[Comebakatz3]

Replay confirms!!

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Did he get him?

Yes. Easily.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Crochet coming in to pitch for Tennessee.

 

[Old_Red]

In the 5th, 24 pitches for Neely, 9 pitches for Lewis

 

[Jeff Drummond]

New pitcher on for Vols. This lefty gave UK some issues on Friday night.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Shinn pinch hitting after Becker grounds out to short.

 

[Comebakatz3]

UK pen now staffed but not working. Shinny wears one on the thigh for a one out base runner.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Kessler also wears one to put two on! Tennessee pitching coach out.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Strong swing goes on a line to the warning track for out two. Ben got into that one but just no carry out there to get over the head of center.

Dawson then lines one to center and it's shoelaced for out 3. Gah.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Going to replay to see if he trapped it. Don't think he did.

 

[Old_Red]

Crochet comes in as I was counting up the pitches for Neely. Groundout, 2 HBPs and two line outs.Running out of outs.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Replay confirmed. UK really killed the ball there. Just couldn't get it to drop.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Cats not getting many breaks today. Crushing balls to warning track, diving stops by Vols.

 

[Black Diamond Cat]

Just some hard luck on Aklinski, and especially Dawson !

 

[Comebakatz3]

Top of the lineup needs to hit it just as hard as 8 and 9 did and we will be in business.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Just no carry. Pomp hits another one hard and right at left for out one.

 

[Old_Red]

16 pitch inning by Crochet. 7 pitch inning by Lewis that included a 4 pitch walk in between a ground out and a tailor made double play ball by Leftridge.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Becker is clutch.

 

[Black Diamond Cat]

Beautiful squeeze bunt by Beck !

 

[Old_Red]

Cottam's hit called a single with a two base error. Really? Becker gets a good squeeze bunt to score Cottam. Tied at 3.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Got back in this! 3-3

 

[Old_Red]

Sounds like we are getting some pretty good contact on Crochet.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Cottam's hit called a single with a two base error. Really? Becker gets a good squeeze bunt to score Cottam. Tied at 3.

Probably correct.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Breaks going UK’s way finally!

 

[Comebakatz3]

Another double play for JLew!

 

[Comebakatz3]

Haake up and throwing but not ready.

Old Red, what's his pitch count?

 

[Comebakatz3]

Scratch that it is Ramsey.

Chinea hits his first home run of the season. 5-3 now.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Potential back-breaker for Cats as UT's light-hitting Chinea hits his first career HR to put Vols up 5-3 in B7. It was a two-out blast after UK came out for mound visit with starter Justin Lewis.

 

[Old_Red]

Haake up and throwing but not ready.

Old Red, what's his pitch count?

97 wish it was 96.

 

[LukaszObrzut]

Can't believe that guy just hit a HR... lol... that's some terrible luck

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Chinea was the 9-hole hitter batting .144 on the season.

 

[Old_Red]

A 135 hitter hits his first home run against Lewis. Sheesh...

23 pitches for Crochet in the 7th. 16 pitches for Lewis. He's made a few mistake pitches this year and seems like he's paid for every one of them.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Tennessee changing pitchers again. Going to Stallings.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Stallings has 6.35 ERA in SEC play.

 

[STUCKNBIG10]

This team makes lots of mistakes, but certainly we don't get much luck either. Sonofabitch .135 hitter hits his first career home run.

And this is after Lewis hits the previous batter after a 1-2 count

 

[Old_Red]

Kessler caught looking on 3 pitches. Looked like the the called third strike was right over the middle to me and well in the strike zone. May have been nerves. Aklinski check swings and geta n error on Crochet. I guess he hit a snag on that one.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Double play ends our half of the 8th.

Tennessee has had bad luck in the 9th this year. Hope we can cash in on that.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Ramsey now coming in.

 

[Old_Red]

We don't look like a great hitting team lately. Dawson hits into a routine double play to end the inning.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Internationally walking Lipcius.

Harper up in the pen.
