Trey Lipscomb extends on-base streak in series finale against Pirates

Former Vol Trey Lipscomb appeared in his fifth career Major League Baseball game for the Nationals on Thursday.

Pittsburgh (6-1) defeated Washington (2-4), 7-4, at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C.

Lipscomb went 1-for-4 and recorded a two-out RBI. The former Vol extended his on-base streak to five games.

Lipscomb made his Major League debut on March 30 after former Vol Nick Senzel was placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to March 27, due to a fractured right thumb.

Lipscomb played at Tennessee from 2019-22 and appeared in 103 games, including 78 starts.

He recorded a .331 batting average, 24 home runs, 103 RBIs, 83 runs, 37 walks and seven stolen bases for the Vols. During the 2022 campaign, he became the first Vol since Cody Hawn (22) in 2009 to hit 20-plus home runs in a season.

Lipscomb appeared in 66 games in his final season at Tennessee in 2022. He totaled 22 home runs, 84 RBIs, 68 runs, 89 hits, 19 doubles, three triples, 26 walks and four stolen bases.

Tennessee won the Southeastern Conference East division, the league regular-season and tournament championships in 2022.

He was selected by Washington in the third-round of the 2022 Major League Baseball draft (No. 84 overall).
