As the 2021 season continues to go from bad to worse, the Tigers are all but certain to be out of the SEC tournament picture after getting swept at the hands of the No. 5 Tennessee Volunteers.
Game Recaps
Friday night turned out to be the only competitive game of the series, and the Tigers had a great chance to win right until the bitter end.
Thanks to an Andrew Keefer 2-run HR in the 2nd and an RBI single from Brandt Belk in the third, the Tigers jumped out to an early 3-run lead against the No. 5 Volunteers. However, that lead was short-lived as the Volunteers got those three runs back by stringing hits together in the 4th and 6th. Nevertheless, Seth Halvorsen’s 5 IP and 3 ER combined with Lukas Veinbergs 2 shutout innings out of the bullpen had the Tigers in a prime position to get a victory.
