Following a 10-2 victory and then a 12-1 victory at Sherri Parker Lee Stadium against the Auburn Tigers on Sunday, Ralph and Karen Weekly’s team was able to firmly establish itself on a national scale.
The pitching did what it needed to do, and the bats came alive in dominant fashion against the deepest pitching staff in arguably the country. The result was Tennessee destroying the Tigers twice, and now they are looking to complete the series on Monday.
Getting a sweep against the Tigers would move the Vols to 39-12 overall and 15-6 in the SEC, good for second place in the league behind the Florida Gators.
