BaseVols midweek recap: Tennessee loses to Boston College 7-6, thanks in part to eight stranded runners and some base-running foibles

Tennessee got its first real, midweek challenge against 8-1 Boston College on Tuesday evening, and lost 7-6, despite the Eagles not scoring more than one run in any single inning.

Neither team got on the board until the Eagles took Zander Sechrist deep for a home run and a 1-0 lead in the top of the third. Zechrist had been solid before he gave up the homer and ended up with an overall decent outing. He went three innings and gave up just the one run and two hits while striking out three.

But, the Vols bats responded with three runs in the bottom of third, as a one-out Chistian Scott single dropped into right field on an 0-2 count.
