There will be a pair of new start times for Tennessee vs. Bowling Green baseball games this weekend at Lindsey Nelson Stadium.

Friday’s contest that was originally slated to begin at 6:30 pm eastern time has been bumped up two hours to 4:30 pm eastern time. Saturday’s scheduled 6 pm eastern time first pitch will now come an hour earlier at 5 pm eastern time. The changes have been made due to expected inclement weather and cold temperatures in the Knoxville area.

Sunday’s series-finale against the Falcons will start at the same time, 1 o’clock eastern time in the afternoon. All three games will be streamed via the SEC Network+ and on the ESPN and Varsity apps while an audio stream of the games can be heard at UTSports.com or the Tennessee Athletics app.

Tennessee (8-1) has won seven-straight games since dropping an extra inning affair against Oklahoma on Saturday of Opening Weekend at Globe Life Park in Arlington, TX. – a part of the Shriners Children’s College Baseball Showdown.    

Outfielder Kavares Tears is off to a scorching start at the plate, leading the squad with a .462 average, four home runs and is second with 11 runs batted in. Infielder Christian Moore (.406) is leading the squad with five doubles while third baseman Billy Amick has driven in a team-high 13 runs.

Tennessee posted its 12th nonconference series-sweep at home since the 2020 campaign with three victories over Albany last weekend where the Vols outscored the Great Danes by a combined 41-11 margin. I three midweek games to date, the Vols have outscored UNC Asheville, ETSU and High Point by a combined score of 26-6 and also handed nationally ranked Texas Tech and Baylor form the Big 12 on Opening Weekend, 6-2 and 11-5, respectively.
