It’s a change of venue for the Tennessee Volunteers, and a change in the opposition, too.
Tennessee included AT&T Field in its fall exhibition baseball schedule in both 2024 and 2025, holding intrasquad games at the former home of the Chattanooga Lookouts. The Lookouts, of course, now play at the $115 million Erlanger Park, which will be the site of Sunday afternoon’s exhibition between the Vols and Georgia Tech.
The Yellow Jackets were seeded No. 2 overall in the NCAA tournament earlier this year before getting bounced in their Atlanta Regional by eventual national champion Oklahoma.
“Playing outside competition as much as you can is incredibly invaluable,” Tennessee second-year head coach Josh Elander said. “That’s especially true in the fall setting, because you can see how guys handle playing in front of a bunch of people. Scrimmaging is great, but any time we can get the opportunity to face outside competition, I’m running straight towards that.”
The nine-inning exhibition will start at 2, with gates opening at 1.
