The No. 5 Vanderbilt Commodores (32-11, 16-5 SEC) trailed in two out of three games this weekend against No. 15 Kentucky; yet, they came away with all three. Even when the offense seemed outmatched in Sunday’s finale, trailing 2-1 into the bottom of the ninth, the VandyBoys brought late magic to walk it off on.
The VandyBoys will go for the sweep in their three-game series against Kentucky on Sunday. Follow along live here with our Weekend Update all series! Sunday, April 30: Vanderbilt 3, Kentucky 2 FINAL Vanderbilt (32-11, 16-5) walked off Kentucky (30-13, 11-10) on an Alan Espinal liner to left field to take all three games of.
For the second straight season, Vanderbilt was swept by its arch-rival Tennessee over the weekend. It’s the team’s first lost series of the season, and, combined with the April 18 loss to Indiana State, puts the Commodores on a four-game losing streak. It’s obviously the worst week of the season, but the team’s sloppy playing.
