Tennessee Baseball Scrimmage Stats And Notes: Feb. 2 | Rocky Top Insider
Tennessee baseball spent its Sunday night at Lindsey Nelson Stadium holding a 7.5-inning intrasquad scrimmage just under two weeks away from its season-opening series against the Hofstra.
Pitching carried the evening with the two sides combining to score just two runs in the scrimmage. All five pitchers had a solid day but Nate Snead, Marcus Phillips and Andrew Behnke all had fantastic outings.
Phillips allowed one run when he exited the scrimmage after allowing a single to Gavin Kilen to lead off the fourth inning. Austin Hunley came in for Phillips and allowed the inherited run to score on a Dalton Bargo sac fly.
Behnke allowed one run while striking out six batters in four innings pitched. The left hander threw three innings for the away team and then switched and threw the final inning for the home team. Tennessee is looking for both Phillips and Behnke to step up this season after borderline roles a season ago.
Ole Miss transfer Andrew Fischer did not scrimmage. Nor did North Carolina transfer Alberto Osuno, who joined the Tennessee program this weekend.
Couple plays of note. Freshman Jay Abernathy made a fantastic throw to third base to catch Chris Newstrom trying to tag up from second to third on the Bargo sac fly. Jaxon Walker threw a runner from second out at home on a single up the middle. Stone Lawless caught Walker stealing at one point.
Ariel Antigua had a fantastic slide, dodging a tag at home on a Brennon Seigler double. Seigler was the only player on either team that had multiple hits.
Here’s a look at the stats for both teams on Sunday night.
