Tennessee is in an unfamiliar spot. Notre Dame showed up to play in Friday’s Knoxville Super Regional opener. The Irish made it 8-1 in the 4th inning, the first time the No. 1 Volunteers trailed by more than 5 runs all year.

Notre Dame has done its damage using the longball. The Irish have hit 4 home runs in the first 4 innings. UT has yet to lead in the game, with ND making it 2-0, 3-0, 3-0, 5-0 and 8-1 by leaving the yard in Lindsey Nelson Stadium.

In the top of the 4th inning, Tennessee made its second pitching change of the day to stop the bleeding at 8-1. It’s an 8-2 game in the bottom of the 4th inning after a Trey Lipscomb solo home run.
We’ll see if the Vols are able to battle back. The game is airing on ESPN2.
