OFFICIAL BASEBALL THREAD: CLEMSON at No.10 Georgia

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 11:18:20

The Tigers will go for the season sweep of UGA at 6:00 today after beating the Bulldogs a couple weeks ago for the first time since 2017. They won their first ACC series of the season at No.23 Wake over the weekend and would have swept if not for losing in extra innings on Saturday. Blake Wright was the hero for the Tigers in their 4-3 win over UGA on April 5. He was 2-4 with a double and his 6th and last HR of the season. Barlow pitched 5 innings and allowed just one run and 3 hits.

Chris Hamby will be in Athens, and we'll provide live coverage for you right here!

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:05:01

Freshman David Lewis is starting tonight at DH with ice cold Brewer on the bench. Lewis hit his first career HR at Wake on Sunday.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:10:10

Blackwell strikes out looking to start the game. Georgia will use at least 5 or 6 pitchers tonight. Sometimes they use 8 or 9 in these midweek games.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:12:03

Ingle flies out. He is on a 6-game hit streak and has hit safely in all but 3 games this season.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:14:11

Wright singles with 2 outs. He has at least one hit in 12 of the last 13 games and is now batting .333 on the season.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:15:00

Wright advances to 2nd on a failed pick off attempt! RISP with 2 outs for Wagner.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:15:27

Ugh Wagner fouls out on a full count to end the inning.

SCORELESS M1.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:17:02

Ugh Barlow gives up a leadoff double.

Thexoach 2022-04-19 17:17:54

That was an error by the right fielder. Lost it in the sun

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:18:48

Well it was scored a double. Home team scoring! Ingle is in right, by the way, because Grice is in center with Brewer on the bench. The Tigers are not as good defensively with Brewer on the bench, but he hasn't hit safely in about a month!

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:19:37

Barlow gets a K and a liner to 3rd! Man on 2nd with 2 outs.

Thexoach 2022-04-19 17:20:38

Yes home team has it as a error on the scoreboard

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:22:34

Barlow gets his 2nd K to end the inning!

SCORELESS AFTER ONE.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:23:33

The scoreboard is wrong, Chris. They have officially ruled it as a double. Like I said, home team scoring.

Thexoach 2022-04-19 17:25:06

Is that what is showing on the TV screen? Just asking

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:27:12

Corbitt flies out, Grice and Lewis strike out 1-2-3.

SCORELESS M2.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:29:42

The game is not televised. I use the official live stats that are provided by the UGA SID, who has it ruled a double. Watch the scoreboard should change eventually.

Thexoach 2022-04-19 17:31:41

Surprised the SEC Network doesn't have it on. There are people here running the TV Cameras. Ok will do

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:35:31

Barlow gets a grounder and a K on full count but gives up a 2-out walk.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:36:58

Barlow gets a grounder to end the inning!

SCORELESS AFTER 2.

Thexoach 2022-04-19 17:37:30

No homerun for Georgia so their jackpot grows to 550.00. Jokingly told them if a homerun wasn't hit and they wanted to desperately give away the money i would split it with the young lady beside me

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:39:12

There are TV cameras because it's being streamed on SEC Plus, but it's not televised. You're right, though, it's surprising it's not on SEC Network. The first game was on ACC Network.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 17:40:57

FRENCH LEADOFF HR!!! Tigers lead 1-0! French's 5th HR of the season but first in over a month.

Corbitt singles! 2 on with one out for Grice.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 18:05:19

GRICE 3-RUN HR!!! His 3rd HR in the last 2 games puts the Tigers up 4-0! Lol I've been saying for weeks that if Grice started hitting like we expected, the Tigers would start winning. He hadn't hit a HR for 5 weeks and suddenly hit 2 at Wake on Sunday and now one tonight! His batting average was down to about .220, over 100 points lower than last season.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 18:09:27

New pitcher for UGA with one out.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 18:12:10

TIGERS LEAD 4-0 M5.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 18:41:34

Ugh Barlow gives up a pair of singles to start the 5th. It's the 4th time in 5 innings he's put the leadoff man on base.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 18:42:56

Good grief Barlow gives up a walk on full count to load the bases with no outs. He's gonna have to come out and get a no-decision because he didn't make it to the 6th.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 18:49:04

Good grief Barlow gives up a base-clearing triple to make it 4-3. Lindley comes in from the pen with no outs and the tying run on 3rd. Monte should have yanked Barlow after loading the bases. Putting the leadoff man on for the 4th time finally cost him!

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 18:57:22

Lindley gets a K and then hits the next batter. Corners with one out.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 18:57:54

Ugh sac grounder ties the game. Man on with 2 outs.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 18:58:29

Lindley gets a K to end the inning. Great first 4 innings by Barlow, but he will get a no decision.

TIED 4-4 AFTER 5.

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 19:01:16

BLACKEWELL DELIVERS!!! 2-out single makes it 6-4!

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 19:15:02

Ingle lines out to end the inning. Couple huge 2-out hits! What an answer by the Tigers!

TIGERS LEAD 6-4 M6.

Thexoach 2022-04-19 19:18:25

Nice double play to get out of the inning. Also too, I am use to covering softball and that is only 7 innings so innings 8 and 9 might be a little laborous for me lol

CUTrevor 2022-04-19 19:30:11

Lindley goes 1-2-3!

TIGERS LEAD 6-4 AFTER 6.

Grice flies out.
