VT gave the game away more so than Clemson earned it. I know walks were a topic prior to yesterday’s game, which led me to explore these stats. I could only find a stat for strikeout to walk ratio. Of the 50 teams listed it was not surprising to see VT issued the most free passes. I totally understand the weather was a factor yesterday. Both teams dealt with it - VT walked 13, Clemson 3. That’s a big difference to explain. For those more knowledgeable about the game, why do you feel VT struggles so much with control? Confidence seems to be an issue at times. I know VT won’t win them all, but if the Hokies are going to lose let’s not give the game away. Make others earn it. This is the hard part about yesterday’s loss. Throw strikes and let teams hit the ball. VT has a strong defense. I’d rather lose to a team that earned the win hitting the ball well versus free passes. Go into the NCAAT with a chip on your shoulder (not literally Chip, okay maybe), play with confidence, and bring home the ‘ship. Good luck Hokies!
