Chandler Day is the new pitcher for the Vols. The lefty has a 7.36 ERA in just 7.1 innings of work.

@Jeff Howe I need you to rank SEC ballparks at some point. Want to make a list of which ones I need to attend. 

Arkansas and Mississippi State, for sure.

I like Blue Bell.

South Carolina has a solid park.

Alex Box is always up there (even though LSU fans will tell you that it's nice, but it doesn't compare to the old Box).

Auburn's park is really nice.

Have to win this one.

In a weird way this feels like the Arkansas series a year ago where it’s largely uncompetitive. 

Gumbo flies out to the warning track in right, ending a four-run, two-hit inning for the Longhorns with one left on base.

M1: Texas 4, Tennessee 0

Love it, thank you. Miss State feels like #1 for me right now.

That's what happens when you play sloppy baseball. And it's been sloppy this weekend, to say the least.

The Texas fans who've made the trip to Starkville were impressed with the way they were treated. That means something.

Heck of a start. 

Wright's leadoff double is the 11th extra-base hit of the weekend for the Vols.

Two on, nobody out for Ford after Riojas walks Grimmer.

Riojas is still a little off.  Needs to get in the groove fast.

Duplantier tries to make an over-the-shoulder catch on Ford's fly ball. He drops it. The bases are loaded with no outs.

Get! Your! Outs! On! Time!

Grindlinger flies out to left. The runners hold.

Bases still loaded with one out. A double play would be nice right here.

Nice PFP by Ruger. He flips the dribbler to Tinney to keep the run from scoring. Bases still loaded with two outs.

 

 

We're tied. Grand slam by Chapman.

The one in Pigville hard to beat.

 

This series can't end fast enough.

End of 1: Texas 4, Tennessee 4

Well, I guess he hasn't found the groove yet.

Nope. Hitter-friendly park or not, it's hard to build confidence when you give up a grand slam.

This feels like a rinse and repeat of what happened last year. At some point, this goes to coaching.
