Tennessee baseball alters Tuesday first pitch time
Tennessee baseball’s first midweek contest of the season has been moved up 30 minutes due to frigid temperatures in the evening forecast in the Knoxville area.
The Vols (3-0) and UNCA Asheville (3-0) will now begin at 4 o’clock eastern time from Lindsey Nelson Stadium instead of the previously scheduled 4:30 pm ET first pitch.
“Due to incoming weather and dropping temperatures this evening, first pitch for tonight’s game against UA Asheville has been moved up by 30 minutes and will be at 4 p.m. ET,” a university press release announced at noon.

Left-handed hurler Brandon Arvidson is the projected starter for Tennessee on the mound. The former JUCO transfer tossed a clean inning of relief in Saturday’s 18-1 win over the Pride, making his Tennessee debut. Righty Branden Barna, who also pitched this past weekend, will counter Arvidson for UNC Asheville.
