Friday lineup vs. Tennessee


by SID

It is a beautiful day right now at Lindsey Nelson Stadium in Knoxville. It is 80 degrees with some clouds in the sky. Weather will play a factor throughout the SEC this weekend, we will keep you updated on the weather in Knoxville on www.vucommodores.com. Tonight should be good to go.

1. Anthony Gomez 2B
2. Brian Harris SS
3. Jason Esposito 3B
4. Curt Casali DH
5. Aaron Westlake 1B
6. Andrew Giobbi C
7. Connor Harrell CF
8. Joe Loftus RF
9. Bryan Johns LF
SP: Sonny Gray 5-4, 2.33 ERA

The Commodores were swept last year by the Vols, losing two of the games in extra innings. VU struggled at the plate as well as on the mound with a .271 team batting average and a 7.14 ERA.

Brian Harris was 5-for-13 (.385), while Curt Casali was 3-for-8 (.375) with four walks in the series.

Sonny Gray will look to improve on his performance of a year ago when he gave up four runs on eight hits in four innings with four strikeouts in the no-decision.

In fact the Commodores used nine pitchers in the three games, and just one didn't allow a run: Caleb Cotham who pitched 1.2 innings.

Here's looking for a reversal of fortune in an hour.
