Stay updated with Tennessee's matchup against Wake Forest in a win or go home finale in the Knoxville Regional.

The Tennessee Volunteers nearly escaped the Knoxville regional completely unscathed. However, after a ninth inning walk off win by the Wake Forest Demon Deacons, we return to Lindsey-Nelson stadium for a final regional game between Wake Forest and Tennessee.

The Tennessee Volunteers are one win away from returning to a Super Regional for the fifth straight season. A win over Wake today would punch their ticket to the Arkansas Super Regional.

Wake Forest announced that fifth-year RHP Griffin Green will get the start for them. He has a 2-1 record on the season with a 2.55 ERA in 35.1 innings and 19 walks with 38 strikeouts. He has not started a game this year. For Tennessee it will be AJ Russell taking the mound
