Peyton Manning, Morgan Wallen hilariously celebrate Christian Moore CWS finals lead-off home run

Christian Moore wasted no time to get things going for Tennessee in Game 3 of the College World Series against Texas A&M. Heck, it sent Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning and music star Morgan Wallen into a frenzy in the stands.

Moore ripped a first inning home run to lead things off in the bottom half of the frame. Texas A&M came up empty at first and the Volunteers made the Aggies pay.

You can see the home run below.

C-Mo came to play! Vols strike first!

The NFL legend is a notable alum while the country music star is a Tennessee-native and lifelong fan. Tennessee football coach Josh Heupel and men’s basketball coach Rick Barnes are also in attendance.

A pretty good game to attend don’t you think? Especially when Moore brings the house down.

Christian Moore gets it going in 1st inning for Tennessee

Moore led things off in Game 3, the do or die matchup in the College World Series. Monday night’s game is for the national title.

Texas A&M won the first matchup of the best-of-three series 9-5 while the Volunteers bounced back with a 4-1 win over the Aggies in Game 2. A national champion will have to be crowned on Monday.

One of the highlights from Game 2 saw a big-time solo shot in the bottom of the first inning. Texas A&M sophomore Jace LaViolette crushed a home run 415 feet to right field to give the Aggies an early 1-0 lead.

LaViolette’s bomb was the only run for the next six innings, with neither team able to find a score. Tennessee repeatedly got runners on base but failed to bring them home. In only six innings, Tennessee left nine players on base.

In the seventh inning, Tennessee took its fate into its own hands when sophomore Dylan Dreiling hit a two-run laser over the left field fence. The crushing shot gave the Volunteers a 2-1 lead.

Tennessee didn’t stop there. Only one inning later, senior catcher Cal Stark crushed a two-run homer to left field to stretch Tennessee’s lead to 4-1. Prior to the massive hit, Stark was 0-16 from the plate in CWS. His breakthrough couldn’t have come at a better time.

Texas A&M was unable to retaliate, going scoreless in the final two innings. Texas A&M put two batters on base in the bottom of the ninth inning but was unable to capitalize on the moment.

If Tennessee has more moments like the one from Moore, it could be a long night for the Aggies.
