Review says it was a 4-6-3 double play.
Vols get out of a bases loaded and no out jam.
Holy cow. To the 11th. https://t.co/oTCEhTJtNQ
— Mike Wilson (@ByMikeWilson) June 4, 2023
Ethan Payne, mostly a pinch-running sub, was the first baseman with the stretch on that double play.
This script is crazy. https://t.co/oTCEhTJtNQ

After two home runs, Zane Denton is intentionally walked. Lol. Runners on the corners with one out.
— Sam Rothman (@samrothman_) June 4, 2023
We are getting our money’s worth tonight. Clemson loaded the bases with NO OUTS. It looked like the Tigers had walked it off, but Riley Bertram was out. And we are headed to the 11th!
