Backer hits 2 home runs, Leads Yellow Jackets to Win
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets dealt the Vanderbilt Commodores a 9-5 loss at Ballpark of Barrow College. Mike Backer was the star on offense. He was 3 for 5 with 2 home runs and a double. He scored 3 runs and drove in 5. Georgia Tech reliever Drew Garner picked up the win, bumping his record to 1-0. Jim Unknown was collared with the loss. The Yellow Jackets now own a record of 10-8.

The most critical at-bat came in the top of the ninth inning. With two out, Brad Fisher hit a first pitch changeup from Jim Unknown for a run-scoring single. It put Georgia Tech in front, 6-5.

"I told our guys, 'Runs don't score by themselves,'" said Backer. "You need someone to get on base and someone to drive them in."
