In the third game of the day, Vanderbilt held the Florida offense at bay en route to the 6-3 victory to advance to Wednesday’s second round. The Commodores got a good start from Bryce Cunningham, show threw six innings of scoreless ball before Brennan Seiber got the three-inning save to close it out despite allowing a ninth-inning homer. Braden Holcomb had the big hit of the night for Vanderbilt with a two-run home run in the fourth inning to break the game open.

Offense was hard to come by in the final game of the night, which was a bona fide pitchers duel between Ole Miss and Mississippi State. The Rebels took a 1-0 lead into the top of the ninth inning, but the Bulldogs found themselves with an opportunity when David Mershon got to second base on a passed ball. With two outs, Connor Hujsak hit one over the left field fence for a walk-off winner – sending MSU to the next round with the 2-1 victory.
