Tennessee baseball ended its regular season strong by winning two out of three games at South Carolina. It marked the Vols’ first road series win of the season and improved Tennessee’s record to 38-18 (16-14 SEC) in the regular season.
The Vols used a brilliant Andrew Lindsey outing to take game one of the series 5-0. South Carolina took game one of the Saturday doubleheader when Chase Burns surrendered four runs in relief, but Tennessee bounced back with one of its best games of the season, dominating the Gamecocks 12-1 in the series finale.
Tony Vitello’s sixth Tennessee team now heads to Hoover for the SEC Tournament. The seven-seed Vols face 10-seed Texas A&M on Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. ET.
Tennessee is moving in the rankings following the series victory over a ranked South Carolina team.
