NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee baseball is back in action Saturday afternoon in the state’s capital as the Vols go for the series win over Vanderbilt at Hawkins Field. The first pitch for game two of the series is set for 3 o’clock eastern time and will be televised on the SEC Network.

No. 1 Tennessee (41-9, 18-7 SEC) took game one behind a five-run eighth inning when both Kavares Tears and Cannon Peebles sent two-run homers over the outfield fence. The Vols have now won eight-straight over the Commodores (33-17, 11-14 SEC) for the first time since 1993-1995.
