What Tennessee baseball coach Josh Elander believes is wrong with Vols' offense
Tennessee baseball coach Josh Elander believes the Vols are "trying too hard" on offense, leading to poor performances. The Vols lost to Ole Miss 8-1 in Game 2.
Tennessee baseball coach Josh Elander believes the Vols' series finale against No. 23 Ole Miss is the "biggest Sunday game" they will have had this season. Tennessee (25-14, 7-10 SEC) has already lost the series after dropping the first two games.
Elander, though, is more fixated on offensive improvement following another putrid performance in the 8-1 Game 2 loss to the Rebels (29-11, 8-9) at Lindsey Nelson Stadium on April 18. The Vols finish against Ole Miss on April 19 (1 p. m.
ET, SEC Network+). "Two very frustrating days in a row," Elander said. "Credit to Mississippi's pitching staff, they've done a good job.
Whether it be approach or process, we've had some good days with that but we're not getting the results that we want. "We're going to have to make some adjustments. I think a lot of it is guys just trying too hard.
