Micheletti
Why did he come out?

I assumed it was a defensive replacement.

It was. Micheletti can be shakey in RF, and with VT leading by 1 run in the
9th he was subbed out for defensive purposes. Turned out he was needed with his bat later in the game, but hindsight is always 20/20.

Bonehead coaching move. This is not mlb
More runs will usually be scored, therefore don’t pull big hitters for marginal defensive improvement, stick with the hot hand on the mound, and very rarely intentionally walk a guy. 3 things you see in mlb, and shouldn’t in college. All 3 of these have cost us games this season.
