Tennessee Volunteers head baseball coach Tony Vitello was ejected in the final game of Auburn vs Tennessee on Sunday evening.
Tennessee and Auburn have both had a very eventful weekend with rain, storms, and now an ejection of Tony Vitello.
After Auburn won the first game and Tennessee bounced back for a victory, the Vols and Tigers would take the mound for game three. This left tensions flying high in the f ifth inning of the game against Auburn. Vitello would take a stroll out to the infield and would give every single official a piece of his mind.
Vitello would then be ejected for the remainder of the game. You can watch Vitello being ejected by the umpires below

Green Bay Packers: Luke Musgrave’s Wife’s Stunned Reaction to Jordan Love’s Wife’s Personal Post
The Green Bay Packers are about to kick off their 2025 NFL regular season, so it feels like a good time for some of the players to look back at some of the key moments and experiences they’ve had in the offseason. For quarterback Jordan Love and tight end Luke Musgrave, the 2025 NFL offseason will always be one that they’ll cherish — and not just because of anything that’s football-related. Love and Musgrave both got married to their respective longtime girlfriends in the offseason. The signal-caller tied the knot with Ronika Stone in June, while Musgrave and Madi Weisner exchanged vows in July. Ronika Stone’s wedding lookback gets Green Bay tight end’s wife’s reactions Mrs. Love recently shared a post on Instagram that shows a series of snapshots from her wedding with the Packers’ signal caller. “Every detail was SPECTACULAR ,” Ronika wrote as a caption for the post. She clearly is still awed by how her wedding looked that day, with several beautiful flower arrangements adorning the special day. Ronika’s post drew plenty of comments, including one from Mrs. Musgrave, who wrote “UNREAL.” It’s great to see Packers players’ wives showing support for each other just as Love and Musgrave do on the field. For Musgrave, he is looking to have a big rebound in 2025 after only appearing in seven games and coming up with 45 receiving yards with zero touchdowns and only a couple of first downs on seven receptions and 10 targets. The Packers, who will play the Seattle Seahawks at home this Saturday for both teams’ 2025 NFL preseason finale, will face the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field in Week 1 of the 2025 regular season.

Multiple Vikings suffered injuries in preseason finale that could make a huge impact on 53-man roster while a disturbing trend continues
The preseason is the proving ground for young players, but it can be their worst nightmare at the same time. The final preseason game is the last chance for players to make a major impression on the coaching staff and front office. Unfortunately, for some players, they end up getting injured. That happened with multiple Minnesota Vikings in their 23-13 loss to the Tennessee Titans, and it could have a major impact on who makes the final 53-man roster at cutdown day. During the game, four Vikings ended up getting injured with different results. Those injuries could end up making things a little bit complicated for general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah. Minnesota Vikings injuries vs. Tennessee Titans EDGE Tyler Batty "Tyler Batty, pretty early there, you know, had a right knee that will evaluate via the MRI," said head coach Kevin O'Connell. Whenever you hear a coach say the player is going to have an MRI, it's usually not a good sign for them. Batty was not on a path to make the roster after an uninspiring preseason, and that could make it difficult for the Vikings to cut him, as you cannot cut an injured player without giving them an injury settlement. If the injury is serious, Batty will end up going on injured reserve. RB Zavier Scott Early on in the game, Scott suffered what O'Connell described as a right ankle injury. He didn't mention how severe it was, but he didn't return to the game after the injury. Scott finished the game with five carries for 28 yards, and has seemingly earned the RB3 job over Ty Chandler with his entire performance this year. DT Elijah Williams This is arguably the most difficult one of the group. During the beginning of the second half, Williams came up lame and ended up leaving the game. It's a brutal blow for Williams, as he's arguably had the best training camp of anyone with the Vikings. Could he end up like T.Y. McGill from a few years ago and not make the 53-man roster, but rather get an injury settlement? It's certainly possible, but if it's minor, Williams should be a near roster lock. QB Brett Rypien This one was the oddest of them all. Rypien was evaluated for a concussion after getting hit on the head, but it didn't draw a penalty. "Brett Rypien was evaluated for a concussion, but he returned," said O'Connell. "That was the play there, where, I believe the interception there, where, you know, he got hit in the head. It was enough to get evaluated for a concussion, but not enough to, you know, maybe draw a penalty on the play." It's wild that this happened once again, as the Vikings had that happen multiple times last season with Sam Darnold, and those ended up giving their opponents nine points. Thankfully, Rypien ended up being okay, but it's baffling how officials continue to miss it.
Orioles' latest extension could spell doom for All-Star catcher
It's not a good day to be Adley Rutschman. The All-Star catcher could face an uncertain future with the Baltimore Orioles after ESPN's Jeff Passan reported an extension agreement between the club and top prospect Samuel Basallo on Friday morning. Basallo has just four games of MLB experience to his name, but the Orioles are investing in his future development at the big league level, with his plus hit tool that could make him a middle-of-the-order bat in Baltimore for years to come. On the flip side, this extension comes with potential consequences for Rutschman, who has suddenly gone from franchise player to tradeable asset. Selected first overall in 2019 by the Orioles out of Oregon State University, Rutschman was the first prominent figure of Baltimore's rebuild, debuting in 2022 and catapulting the club to back-to-back playoff appearances in 2023 and 2024. And while both of those runs were short-lived, there didn't seem to be much doubt that he would quickly entrench himself as a franchise cornerstone. However, Rutschman has struggled in 2025. The 27-year-old has spent time on the injured list, but even when on the field, his OPS of .684 and OPS+ of 92 are both below-average and short of his career .758 OPS and 116 OPS+, respectively. That lack of production, combined with injuries, has clearly sown doubt into the Orioles' belief that he will remain a key cog of Baltimore's future. And while it's possible that Basallo could eventually move to first base down the line, that doesn't change the perception that Rutschman might feel like an odd man out at Camden Yards. For years, many Orioles fans and pundits had been calling for Rutschman to be extended, along with shortstop Gunnar Henderson, who continues to shine amid larger team struggles. That doesn't seem to be the direction executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias is taking, though, as he appears content to let Rutschman and Henderson walk when they reach free agency. And in the case of Rutschman, specifically, he could now become an intriguing trade chip this winter if the Orioles are so inclined.
T.J. Watt addresses viral Instagram post that hinted new Steelers deal, ‘that was just…’
Pittsburgh Steelers star edge rusher T.J. Watt got rewarded handsomely in the offseason for being one of the best in the NFL at his position, and he had a few things to say about how the deal came about. The Steelers have made some big moves in the offseason, trading for Jalen Ramsey, signing Darius Slay, Aaron Rodgers, and DK Metcalf, alongside extending T.J. Watt. It capped off one of the most un-Steelers offseasons in years, and there is still more business to be done as Cam Heyward is holding in over his contract details. Watt signed a record three-year, $123 million extension, the highest deal for a non-quarterback, following months of tough negotiations between his agent and the Steelers. Many thought Watt’s Instagram post with Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Nick Herbig just hours before the deal was confirmed was a major hint of it being done. It turns out that wasn’t quite the case. T.J. Watt had no idea Steelers extension was done when he posted Instagram photo with Herbig Hours before T.J. Watt’s extension was confirmed, he posted a picture with Nick Herbig, and he had a sizeable grin of someone who’d just ended his holdout and earned a massive payday. That wasn’t the case. Asked if Herbig spilled the beans on the deal on Cam Heyward‘s podcast, Watt said: “You’re talking about the picture that we posted. No, that was literally just picture day at the gym! “I got home, and the deal, they called me, and the deal was done.” Herbig was then asked if he had done pushups before the picture, as he looked ‘jacked’. Aside from the comments that Watt looked remarkably bulkier than he did last year, they had mostly been about the star edge rusher signing a new deal or that they were training in Wisconsin. Herbig and Watt’s Alma Mater was Wisconsin, so some didn’t jump the gun, but the majority of fans went wild with speculation. The fact that his agent had sealed the deal with the Steelers a few hours later looked to have validated that speculation. Well, Watt has now dispelled that for good! Steelers have one of the most stacked edge rushing rooms in NFL after drafting Jack Sawyer The beauty of the NFL draft is that you are often left wondering how players fall to certain teams, like the Baltimore Ravens with Malaki Starks, bolstering an already incredibly defensive backs room. The same can be said for the Chiefs with Left Tackle Josh Simmons, who looks like a franchise LT already, and the Steelers with the Ohio State linebacker Jack Sawyer. Sawyer, a National Championship winner last season, fell to the fourth round, and conveniently into the arms of the Steelers, who already have an incredible pass-rushing unit. He joins Watt, Herbig, and ROLB Alex Highsmith in one of the most dangerous units in the league, which will be a prime test for the AFC North. Here’s what Watt said about Sawyer: “I just think it’s cool to see Jack pick our brains. We give him a hard time because now you can’t really haze rookies, so we’re trying to find ways to get under his skin. “It’s not very hard. But I think he’s going to be a good player for us. I think he’s a bigger body guy who can rush inside or outside, and you see his growth each and every day. It’s been pretty cool.” Baltimore, the Cincinnati Bengals, and the Cleveland Browns will have to face that unit at least twice this season!
