How to Watch: SEC Baseball Tournament Championship Game
SCHEDULE UPDATE: Due to inclement weather in Sunday's forecast for Hoover, Ala., Sunday's SEC Championship has been moved up to an earlier start time. The game will now start at noon.
Tim Corbin’s 11th appearance in the SEC Championship Baseball Tournament final may be with one the hottest teams he’s ever taken to Hoover, Ala.
The Commodores have won their last seven games, including two dominant wins in the SEC Tournament this week. They beat Oklahoma in Thursday’s quarterfinal game, 6-1, and then shutout instate rival Tennessee 10-0 in Saturday’s semifinal game.
Vanderbilt is now 9-2 in its last 11 SEC games, which started after the Commodores’ last SEC series loss to Ole Miss.
“I think sometimes teams take a while to find their identity, and as I was saying the other day, there's no magic pill or magic dust to any of this,” Vanderbilt coach Tim Corbin said after Saturday’s game. “I think they've had a good focus of just getting better, and really, that's what it's been from the middle of the year. The results have been consistent, and that's all that matters.”
Now the Commodores have a chance to assemble an elite-level bullen and avenge that series loss. (Avengers assemble, anyone?)
Vanderbilt, the tournament’s No. 4 seed, will face No. 7-seed Ole Miss for the SEC Tournament championship. You’ll find all the tv, radio, live stats and other information below.
The Rebels’ path to the finale included an extra game, but they dispatched Florida (who came into the tournament ranked 15th national) 3-1 and upset No. 2-seed Arkansas 5-2. Although, it is Arkansas in the postseason so maybe it’s not really an upset?
What certainly wasn't an upset was Ole Miss beating the nation’s top-ranked team, LSU, in Saturday’s semifinal 2-0.
So, that sets up a meeting of the SEC's two hottest teams for the SEC Championship. Here's the previously mentioned information:
